Interesting fact
The 10 Pfennigs - Rosenheim 1918 coin was issued during a time of economic turmoil in Germany, known as the "Inflationary Period" (1914-1924). During this time, the value of the German mark (the national currency) plummeted, and prices for everyday goods skyrocketed. As a result, many Germans turned to alternative forms of currency, such as local coins like the 10 Pfennigs - Rosenheim 1918, which were issued by cities and towns across the country. Despite being made of iron and having a relatively low value, these coins became a popular form of currency among locals, and remain a sought-after collector's item to this day.
