Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 10 Pfennigs - Neumünster ND (1920) coin is that it was issued during a time of hyperinflation in Germany, specifically during the 1920s. This coin, made of iron and weighing 2.3 grams, was worth 10 pfennigs, which was a significant amount during that time period. However, due to the inflation, the value of the coin decreased rapidly, and it became worthless shortly after its issuance. This coin serves as a reminder of the economic struggles Germany faced in the early 20th century.
