Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 10 Pfennigs - Muldenstein coin is that it was made of iron, which was a unusual material for coins at the time. Most coins were made of copper, silver, or gold, but the use of iron in this case was likely due to the scarcity of other metals during World War I. The coin's design, featuring a stylized eagle and the words "Muldenstein" and "10 Pfennigs," is also notable for its simplicity and boldness.
