Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Germany. The 10 Pfennigs coin was introduced in 1924, just a few years after Germany's defeat in World War I and the subsequent hyperinflation that ravaged the country's economy. The coin's minting was a part of an effort to stabilize the German economy and introduce a new currency, the Reichsmark, which replaced the inflated Papiermark. This coin, made of zinc and weighing 2.3 grams, was a symbol of the new economic order in Germany and played an important role in everyday transactions during that time.
