Interesting fact
The 10 Pfennigs coin from Oelde, issued in 1921, is interesting because it was made of aluminum, which was a unusual choice for coins at that time. Aluminum was still a relatively new material in the early 20th century, and it was not commonly used for coins until later in the century. This coin's use of aluminum may have been a cost-saving measure or an experiment in using a different material for coinage.
