Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 10 Pfennigs - Ziegenhals 1918 coin is that it was issued during a time of economic and political turmoil in Germany. The coin was minted in 1918, during the final year of World War I, and its iron composition was a result of the wartime shortage of other metals. The coin's design, featuring a stylized eagle and the value "10 Pfennigs," was also used on other coins minted during this period. Despite its humble appearance, this coin is a tangible reminder of a significant moment in history.
