| Beschrijving keerzijde | Large numeral '10' dominates the central field, with horizontal engine-turned lines filling the interior of the numeral '1' and vertical lines filling the '0', creating a decorative mechanical finish. A circular dot appears between the two digits at baseline. The circular legend 'DEUTSCHES REICH' arcs across the upper periphery with the date '1893' continuing along the right side, while 'PFENNIG' appears in the lower exergual area, all separated by small dot stops. The design is bold and utilitarian, typical of Imperial German subsidiary coinage patterns. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Pattern coinage from 1893 Germany presents a genuine documentary puzzle — official Probe issues of this period were produced by the Berlin Mint in small numbers to test new alloys or designs under consideration by the Reichsbank, and nickel-plated zinc was actively evaluated as a cheaper alternative to the copper-nickel then in use. The plating technology proved unreliable under circulation conditions, and the composition was ultimately rejected.
Surviving examples almost never show plating loss on the high points — a consequence of never reaching circulation, not of careful handling.
