Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 10 Pfennigs - Göppingen 1918 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 dropped significantly due to the country's involvement in World War I and the subsequent economic crisis. As a result, many different types of coins were issued with varying denominations and compositions, such as this 10 Pfennigs coin made of iron, to address the shortage of small change during this period.
