Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 10 Pfennigs - Naumburg an der Saale 1919 coin is that it was issued during a time of economic turmoil in Germany, known as the "Inflationary Period" (1914-1924), when the value of the German mark plummeted, and the prices of goods and services skyrocketed. As a result, the government was forced to issue new coins with lower denominations, such as the 10 Pfennigs, to keep up with the rapidly increasing prices. This coin, in particular, was minted in 1919, when the inflation rate in Germany was at its peak, with prices increasing by a factor of 100 trillion (that's 100,000,000,000) times the pre-war level. Despite the economic challenges, the coin still maintains its historical significance and value among collectors today.
