Interesting fact

The 10 Pfennigs - Zipsendorf (Leonhardwerke A.G.) ND coin was minted during a time of economic turmoil in Germany, specifically during the hyperinflation period of the 1920s. The coin's low denomination and zinc composition were a result of the economic constraints of the time, as the government struggled to produce coins with more valuable materials due to the inflation. Despite its low value, the coin remains a unique and interesting piece of history for collectors and numismatists.
