Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 10 Pfennigs - Trossingen 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, many municipalities, like Trossingen, issued their own emergency currency, like this coin, to address the shortage of small change and to help stabilize the local economy.
