Comment
Menzel: BBBInteresting fact
The 10 Pfennigs coin from Fürth (Kantinenverwaltung) ND is a rare variation of the standard circulation coin, with only a limited number of coins minted. It's made of zinc and weighs 2.2 grams, which is slightly lighter than the standard 10 Pfennigs coin made of copper-nickel. This variation was minted specifically for use in the city of Fürth's cantine administration, and it's considered a collector's item among numismatists today.
