Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 10 Pfennigs - Uerdingen 1917 coin is that it was minted during a time of economic and political turmoil in Germany. The country was facing severe inflation and the coin's low denomination and zinc composition reflect the government's efforts to produce a coin that was both affordable and durable during this challenging period. Despite these efforts, the coin's mintage was ultimately limited due to the wartime economic conditions. Today, this coin is a rare and valuable collector's item, serving as a reminder of Germany's history and the impact of economic and political events on currency production.
