10 Pfennig - Mogilno

Mogilno, then a Prussian administrative town in the Posen region, issued emergency coinage in 1916 under the same pressures that drove hundreds of German municipalities to produce Kriegsgeld: copper and nickel had been requisitioned for war production, and small-denomination coins had effectively vanished from circulation. Zinc was the compromise material available to local authorities with limited striking infrastructure.

The Funck reference places this among the documented Notgeld issues catalogued systematically after the war, when collectors began assembling the chaotic output of wartime municipal issuers.
