Interesting fact

The 10 Pfennigs coin from Nuremberg (Federal state of Bavaria) was made of zinc, which is a relatively soft and corrosion-prone metal. However, despite its vulnerability to wear and tear, the coin has remained a popular collector's item due to its historical significance and the fact that it was produced during a time of great economic and political change in Germany.
