Interesting fact

The 10 Pfennigs coin from Naila, Bavaria, issued in 1918, is interesting because it was made of iron, a material that was commonly used for coins during that time period due to its durability and affordability. However, the use of iron for coins was eventually discontinued due to its tendency to rust and corrode over time, making it less practical for circulation. Therefore, this coin is a unique piece of history that showcases the materials used in coinage during a specific period.
