Interesting fact
The 10 Pfennigs - Wolfach 1919 coin from the District of Wolfach (Federal state of Baden) made of Zinc weighing 2.92 g is interesting because it was produced during a time of economic and political turmoil in Germany. The coin was minted in 1919, just after the end of World War I, when Germany was facing severe economic challenges, including hyperinflation and a large national debt. Despite these challenges, the coin was still made of zinc, which was a relatively inexpensive material, indicating that the government was trying to save costs while still maintaining the production of coinage. This coin is a tangible reminder of the economic struggles that Germany faced in the aftermath of World War I.
