Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 10 Reichspfennig coin is that it was minted during a time of economic and political turmoil in Germany. The coin was introduced in 1940, just a year after the start of World War II, and its production was discontinued in 1941 as the war effort intensified and the German economy began to deteriorate. As a result, the 10 Reichspfennig coin is a rare and valuable collector's item, with some mintage variations selling for high prices at auction.
