| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse features the denomination 10 PFENNIG prominently inscribed in the upper field, separated from the lower legend by a raised horizontal line. Below the line, the inscription KRIEGSMÜNZE (war coin) and the date 1917 appear. The entire design is enclosed within a beaded horseshoe-shaped rim border. The plain, utilitarian layout is characteristic of First World War German municipal emergency coinage, with known varieties differing in the presence or absence of a dot after the date. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Überlingen issued this zinc notgeld piece in 1917, when the Imperial German war economy had stripped copper and nickel from civilian coinage to feed munitions production. Zinc was the fallback — cheap, abundant, and deeply unpopular with the public, who found it corroded quickly and was unpleasant to handle. Hundreds of German municipalities issued their own emergency coinage that year under similar constraints, each responsible for their own dies and distribution.
The Funck reference places this among the catalogued Baden regional issues. Zinc pieces from 1917 are frequently found with post-strike corrosion, making clean survivors harder to source than their original mintages would suggest.
