Interesting fact

The 10 Pfennigs - Sinzig 1919 coin is interesting because 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 dropped significantly due to the country's involvement in World War I and the subsequent economic crisis. As a result, many different types of coins were issued with varying denominations and compositions, like this 10 Pfennigs coin made of iron, to address the shortage of small change.
