Comment
Menzel: BBBInteresting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a brief period of time when Alsace-Lorraine was annexed by Germany during World War I. The coin features a unique design, with the image of a soldier on the obverse side, and the reverse side bearing the inscription "Soldatenheim Oberhofen" which translates to "Soldiers' Home Oberhofen". This coin is a rare and valuable collector's item, with only a limited number minted during its production run.
