Interesting fact
The 10 Pfennigs - Coblenz 1918 coin was issued during a time of economic turmoil in Germany, known as the "Inflationary Period" (1914-1923). During this time, the value of the German mark (the national currency) plummeted, and prices for everyday goods skyrocketed. As a result, many Germans turned to alternative forms of currency, such as local emergency currencies like the 10 Pfennigs - Coblenz 1918 coin. This coin was issued by the City of Koblenz in 1918 as a temporary solution to the currency shortage, and it was only valid for use within the city limits.
