Interesting fact
The 10 Pfennigs - Rastatt 1917 coin from the City of Rastatt (Federal state of Baden) made of Zinc weighing 2.3 g is interesting because it was produced during a time of economic turmoil in Germany, specifically during the hyperinflation period of the 1920s. The coin's value was originally set at 10 Pfennigs, but due to the rapid inflation, its purchasing power decreased significantly, making it nearly worthless by the end of the decade. Despite this, the coin remains a valuable collector's item today, serving as a reminder of Germany's economic history.
