Comment
Issuing authority: [Stadt, Provinz Sachsen]Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 10 Pfennigs - Groß-Salze 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 plummeted, and the prices of goods and services skyrocketed. As a result, the government was forced to produce coins with lower denominations, such as the 10 Pfennigs, to keep up with the increasing demand for small change. Despite being made of iron, which was a less valuable metal at the time, the coin still maintained its value and remained in circulation until the introduction of the new German currency, the Reichsmark, in 1924.
