Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 10 Pfennigs - Landeshut, Schlesien ND (1918) coin is that it was issued during a time of great economic and political turmoil in Germany. The coin was minted in 1918, during the final year of World War I, and its iron composition was likely a result of the wartime shortage of more traditional coinage metals like copper and silver. Additionally, the coin's design features a unique combination of German and Silesian symbols, reflecting the complex cultural and political identity of the region during this time period.
