Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Pattern 10 Reichspfennig (Allied Occupation - Pattern) 1947 from Germany (1871-1948) made of Aluminium weighing 1.35g is that it was designed by the Allied powers during their occupation of Germany after World War II. The coin features a unique design that is different from other German coins of the time, with the reverse side bearing the inscription "Deutschland" and a stylized eagle, while the obverse side features the denomination and the year of issue. This coin is a rare and interesting piece of numismatic history, as it represents a brief period of time when Germany was under Allied occupation and its currency was controlled by foreign powers.
