Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 10 Pfennigs - Oedt (Girmes) ND coin is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Germany. The Prussian province of Rhine, where the coin was minted, was a region of significant industrial and commercial activity, and the coin's zinc composition reflects the growing use of this metal in coinage during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Despite its relatively low denomination, the coin is a tangible reminder of the complex economic and political currents that shaped Germany during this period.
