Comment
Menzel: BBBInteresting fact
The 10 Pfennigs - Orb (Pfeil Bad Orb) ND coin was issued during a time of economic crisis in Germany, specifically during the hyperinflation period of the 1920s. The coin was made of zinc, a relatively inexpensive metal, due to the shortage of other metals at the time. Despite its low value, the coin still features a unique design, showcasing the importance of art and design in German culture, even during times of economic hardship.
