Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 10 Pfennigs - Grünberg 1919 coin is that it was issued during a time of economic turmoil in Germany, specifically during the hyperinflation period of the 1920s. The coin's iron composition was a result of the scarcity of other metals, such as copper and silver, which were being used to produce higher denomination coins. Despite its low value, the 10 Pfennigs coin was an important part of everyday transactions during this time, and its iron composition has made it a unique and interesting collector's item for numismatists today.
