Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 10 Pfennigs - Wangen im Allgäu 1918 coin is that 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 plummeted, and the prices of goods and services skyrocketed. As a result, many Germans turned to alternative forms of currency, such as local Notgeld (emergency money) and foreign currencies, like the US dollar. Despite the economic challenges, the 10 Pfennigs coin remained a widely used denomination in everyday transactions, reflecting the resilience and resourcefulness of the German people during a period of great economic uncertainty.
