Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 10 Pfennigs - Tettnang 1918 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 plummeted, and the prices of goods and services skyrocketed. As a result, the government was forced to produce smaller denomination coins, like the 10 Pfennigs, to keep up with the increasing demand for small change. Despite being made of iron, which was a less valuable metal than the traditional silver or gold, the coin still maintained its value and remained in circulation until the introduction of the new German currency, the Reichsmark, in 1924.
