Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Pattern 10 Reichspfennig coin 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 depicting a stylized eagle and the words "Deutschland / 10 Reichspfennig" (Germany / 10 Reichspfennig) in a modern, sans-serif font. This design was intended to symbolize the new, post-war Germany and its relationship with the Allied powers.
