    That 1918 10-pfennig is pretty decent for one of those iron issues.

    Yeah, must've been sealed from oxidation very well, or else cleaned. I notice the main field is a different color than the areas around the lettering. You guys think it was cleaned?

    none of these coins have been cleaned, I gather being iron the 1918 has reacted to something in the air to make it that way
