Comment
Mint: Theodor Eggmann, Hof is questionable, since the Eggmann company was a stamp factory and book printer.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 10 Pfennigs - Schönwald 1920 coin is that it was issued during a time of economic turmoil in Germany, known as the "Inflationary Period" (1914-1923), when the value of the German mark was rapidly decreasing. To combat this, the government issued a new currency, the "Papiermark," which was backed by a guarantee of gold and foreign currency reserves. The 10 Pfennigs coin was part of this new currency system and was used as a means of stabilizing the economy.
