Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 10 Pfennigs - Freudenstadt 1917 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 plummeted, and the prices of goods and services skyrocketed. As a result, the government was forced to issue new coins with lower denominations, such as the 10 Pfennigs, to keep up with the rapidly increasing prices. Despite being made of iron and having a relatively low value, this coin is a unique piece of history that reflects the economic challenges faced by Germany during that time.
