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 worth 10 pfennigs, which was a significant amount at the time, but due to the inflation, the value of the coin decreased rapidly, making it almost worthless by the end of the decade. Despite this, the coin remains a valuable collector's item today, serving as a reminder of Germany's economic history.
