Interesting fact
The 10 Pfennigs coin from Herbolzheim featuring Arnold Schindler is a rare and valuable collector's item, with only a limited number of coins minted. It's particularly interesting because Arnold Schindler was a German industrialist who saved the lives of over a thousand Jews during the Holocaust by employing them in his factory, which produced enamelware. His heroic actions were later immortalized in the book and film "Schindler's List."
