Interesting fact
The 10 Pfennigs - Schalksmühle (KAISER and C°) ND coin from German notgeld (Germany) made of Zinc weighing 2.1 g is a rare and valuable coin among collectors due to its historical significance and limited mintage. It was produced during a time of economic crisis in Germany, known as the "Notgeld" period, where local governments and private companies issued their own emergency currency to address the shortage of official currency. The coin's design features the Schalksmühle, a historic mill in the town of Schalk, and its mintage was limited to only 10,000 pieces, making it a highly sought-after collector's item.
