Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 10 Pfennigs - Friedrichswerth (Eduard Meyer) 1918 coin from German notgeld (Germany) made of Zinc weighing 2.15 g is that it was issued during a time of economic crisis in Germany, specifically during the hyperinflation period of the 1920s. The coin was part of a series of emergency currency issues, known as "Notgeld," which were introduced to address the shortage of small denomination coins and banknotes. The 10 Pfennigs coin features an image of a farmer, symbolizing the agricultural sector, which was an important part of the German economy at the time. Despite its low denomination, the coin is now considered a rare and valuable collector's item, with some mint conditions selling for hundreds of euros.
