Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 10 Pfennigs - Schönfliess, Bad ND coin from German notgeld (Germany) made of Iron weighing 2.5g is that it was issued during a time of economic crisis in Germany, specifically during the hyperinflation period of the 1920s. The coin was part of a series of emergency currency issued by local authorities, known as "notgeld," which translates to "emergency money" in English. The coin's design features a stylized image of a bird, which symbolizes hope and prosperity, and was intended to convey a sense of optimism during a difficult time in German history.
