Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of economic turmoil in Germany. The 10 Pfennigs coin was introduced in 1924 as part of a new currency reform aimed at stabilizing the German economy after the hyperinflation of the 1920s. The coin was made of zinc, a relatively inexpensive metal, to keep production costs low. Despite the economic challenges of the time, the 10 Pfennigs coin remained in circulation for many years and became a symbol of resilience and stability in Germany's economic recovery.
