The Reichspfennig coin was donated to the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in 2008 by Eugene Silver.
Circular, darkened, silver colored zinc coin, with a smooth edge, so heavily corroded on the front that the details are barely visible, but it is likely embossed with the Nazi symbol of a dexter facing eagle with a swastika with a wreath held in its talons. The reverse is embossed with the denomination 10, with a mint mark F below between two oak leaves, with German text around the inner rim.
