Comment
Menzel: BBBInteresting fact
The 10 Pfennigs coin from Nuremberg (Federal state of Bavaria) made of Zinc weighing 2.1 g has a unique feature - it has a rim that is not circular, but instead has a wavy shape. This wavy rim was a deliberate design choice by the mint to make the coin more easily recognizable and distinguishable from other coins in circulation.
