Comment
Issuing authority: [Stadt, Rheinprovinz]Interesting fact
The 10 Pfennigs - Crefeld ND coin was minted during a time of economic turmoil in Germany, specifically during the hyperinflation period of the 1920s. At that time, the value of the German mark was rapidly decreasing, and the government was forced to issue new coins with lower denominations to keep up with the inflation. The 10 Pfennigs coin was one of the coins minted during this time, and it was made of zinc, a relatively inexpensive metal, to keep production costs down. Despite its low value, the coin is now a sought-after collector's item due to its historical significance.
