The 10 Pfennig coin, abbreviated 10 Pf., was a small circulating denomination of the Deutsche Mark (German mark), which was the official currency of West Germany from 1948 until 1990 and later of unified Germany from 1990 until 2002. It was equal to one tenth of a Mark.
In 1999, the Deutsche Mark was replaced by the Euro; its coins and banknotes remained in circulation, defined in terms of euros, until the introduction of euro notes and coins on 1 January 2002. The Deutsche Mark ceased to be legal tender immediately upon the introduction of the euro.
Ten pfennig coins issued in 1949 circulated for 53 years until 28 February 2002, after which date they were no longer accepted as valid forms of payment in Germany.
