Interesting fact
The 10 Pfennigs - Münsterberg 1918 coin was issued during a time of economic turmoil in Germany, known as the "Inflationary Period" (1914-1923). During this time, the value of the German mark (the national currency) plummeted, and prices for everyday goods skyrocketed. As a result, many Germans turned to alternative forms of currency, such as local emergency currencies like the 10 Pfennigs - Münsterberg 1918 coin. This coin was issued by the City of Münsterberg in Silesia (now part of Poland) and was made of iron, which was a more affordable material than traditional metals like gold or silver. Despite its humble origins, the 10 Pfennigs - Münsterberg 1918 coin remains a fascinating piece of history for collectors and historians today.
