Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 10 Pfennigs - Eisleben (Mansfeldsche Gewerkschaft) 1918 coin is that it was issued during a time of economic turmoil in Germany, known as the "Inflationary Period" (1914-1923), when the value of the German mark dropped significantly due to the country's involvement in World War I and the subsequent economic crisis. As a result, many different types of coins were issued during this time, including the 10 Pfennigs coin made of zinc, which was a cheaper alternative to traditional metals like silver or gold.
