Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 10 Pfennigs - Neurath (Gewerkschaft) ND coin from German notgeld (Germany) made of Zinc weighing 2.4 g is that it was issued during a time of economic crisis in Germany, specifically during the hyperinflation period of the 1920s. The coin was part of a series of emergency currency issued by local authorities and private organizations, known as "notgeld," which translates to "emergency money" in English. The coin's design features the image of a man working in a factory, symbolizing the importance of industry and labor during this time.
