Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Pattern 10 Pfennigs - Wilhelm II (type 2 - small shield - Pattern) 1915 from Germany is that it was minted during a time of war, specifically during World War I. The coin was minted in 1915, and it was a time of economic hardship and scarcity of resources in Germany.
