Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 10 Pfennigs - Oberlahnstein 1917 coin is that it was issued during a time of economic turmoil in Germany, known as the "Inflationary Period" (1914-1923). During this time, the value of the German mark dropped significantly, and the government was forced to print more and more money to keep up with the increasing prices. This led to a period of hyperinflation, where the value of money dropped rapidly and the prices of goods and services skyrocketed. Despite this, the 10 Pfennigs - Oberlahnstein 1917 coin remained a stable currency, and its value did not fluctuate as much as other coins and banknotes during this time.
