Interesting fact

The 10 Pfennigs - Segeberg ND (1917) coin from the City of Segeberg in the Prussian province of Schleswig-Holstein is interesting because it was made of zinc, which was a unusual material for coins at that time. Most coins were made of metals like copper, silver, or gold, but the use of zinc in this coin reflects the economic and political circumstances of Germany during World War I, when many traditional metal resources were scarce or unavailable. The use of zinc in this coin also highlights the resourcefulness and adaptability of the people of Segeberg during a time of crisis.
