Interesting fact
The 10 Pfennigs - Kreuznach ND coin was minted during a time of economic turmoil in Germany, specifically during the hyperinflation period of the 1920s. At that time, the value of the German mark was rapidly decreasing, and the government was forced to print more and more money to keep up with the increasing prices. As a result, many coins like the 10 Pfennigs - Kreuznach ND were minted with a low denomination but made of a cheap metal like iron to keep production costs down. Despite its low value, this coin is still a fascinating piece of history and a reminder of the economic challenges faced by Germany during that time.
