Interesting fact

As a result, the government was forced to print more and more money to keep up with the inflation, leading to a significant decrease in the value of the currency. Despite this, the 10 Pfennigs - Oberhausen 1919 coin remained a stable and reliable form of currency, and its iron composition made it a valuable commodity during a time of economic uncertainty.
