Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Pattern 10 Reichspfennig (Allied Occupation - Pattern) 1948 from Germany (1871-1948) made of Brass plated steel weighing 4 g is that it was designed by the Allied powers during their occupation of Germany after World War II. The coin features the symbol of the Allied occupation, the "Big Four" logo, which represents the four occupying powers: the United States, Great Britain, France, and the Soviet Union. This coin was never officially released into circulation, but it was produced as a pattern coin, which makes it a rare and unique collector's item.
