Interesting fact
The 10 Pfennigs - Wolgast (Edeka) ND coin was issued during a time of economic crisis in Germany, specifically during the hyperinflation period of the 1920s. The coin was made of zinc, which was a cheaper alternative to traditional metals like copper or silver, and it was designed to be easily distinguishable from other coins in circulation. The coin's unique design features a image of a sailing ship on the obverse (front side) and the denomination and year on the reverse (back side). Despite its low value, the coin is now considered a rare collector's item and can be found in auctions and online marketplaces for numismatists.
