Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 10 Pfennigs - Gnadenfrei coin is that it was made of iron, which was a common material used for coinage during the time period in Germany, particularly for low-denomination coins. The use of iron was practical because it was abundant, durable, and less expensive than other metals, making it an economical choice for producing large quantities of coins. Additionally, the coin's design, which features the image of a woman surrounded by foliage, is a notable example of the artistic style of the time period.
