Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a brief period of time when the Imperial territory of Alsace-Lorraine was under German rule, specifically between 1871 and 1918. During this period, the municipality of Oberhofen an der Moder issued its own coins, including this 10 Pfennigs coin, which features a unique design and is a rare collector's item today.
