Comment
(Menzel: BBB)Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time when Germany was going through a period of rapid inflation, known as the "Inflation of the 1920s." This period saw the value of the German mark drop significantly, and as a result, many everyday items, including coins, became much more expensive. Despite this, the 10 Pfennigs coin remained a widely used denomination and was an important part of everyday transactions during this time.
