Interesting fact
The 10 Pfennigs - Treuchtlingen 1919 coin from the City of Treuchtlingen in Bavaria, Germany, is interesting because it was made of iron, a material that was commonly used for coins during that time period due to its durability and affordability. However, it's worth noting that the use of iron in coins was eventually discontinued due to its tendency to rust and corrode over time, making it difficult to maintain its value and longevity.
