Interesting fact

The 10 Pfennigs - Neheim 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 - Neheim 1918 coin, which was issued by the City of Neheim in the Prussian province of Westphalia. Despite its small denomination, the coin was made of iron and weighed 4.2 grams, making it a tangible and valuable alternative to the rapidly depreciating national currency.
