Interesting fact
The 10 Pfennigs - Leutzsch (Max. Jahn) ND coin from German notgeld (Germany) made of Zinc weighing 1.8 g is a rare and valuable coin among collectors due to its historical significance and limited mintage. It was produced during a time of economic turmoil in Germany, known as the "Notgeld" period, where local governments and private companies issued their own emergency currency to combat inflation and a lack of official currency. This coin, in particular, was issued by the city of Leutzsch and features a unique design by artist Max Jahn, making it a sought-after collector's item.
