Interesting fact
The 10 Pfennigs coin from Glatz (Silesia) is interesting because it was issued during a time of great economic and political upheaval in Germany. In 1919, the country was facing hyperinflation, with prices increasing by a factor of 100 trillion (that's 100,000,000,000) between 1914 and 1923. This coin, made of zinc and weighing only 2.1 grams, was issued as a replacement for the previously used paper money, which had become essentially worthless due to the inflation. Despite its small size and value, this coin is a tangible reminder of a tumultuous period in German history.
