Comment
Issuing authority: [Gemeinde, Brandenburg]Interesting fact
The 10 Pfennigs - Döbern N. L. ND coin was issued during a time of economic turmoil in Germany, specifically during the hyperinflation period of the 1920s. The coin was made of iron, which was a cheaper alternative to traditional metals like copper or silver, and it was designed to be easily distinguishable from other coins in circulation. Despite its low value, the coin is now a rare and sought-after collector's item, with some mint conditions selling for hundreds of euros.
