Interesting fact
The 10 Pfennigs - Steinwiesen 1921 coin from the Municipality of Steinwiesen in Bavaria, Germany, is interesting because it was issued during a time of economic turmoil in Germany, known as the "Inflationary Period" (1914-1924), when the value of the German mark dropped significantly due to excessive printing of money, leading to a period of hyperinflation. Despite this, the coin still maintained its value and was widely used in everyday transactions.
