Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of economic turmoil in Germany, specifically during the hyperinflation period of the 1920s. The coin's value was equivalent to 10 pfennigs, a small denomination, but due to the inflation, it was practically worthless. Despite this, the coin still holds historical value and is a reminder of the economic challenges faced by Germany during that time.
