WELL JACK, It is a 10 REICHSPFENNIG. It is made of Aluminum-Bronze. The first was issued in 1936. Yours from 1940 should have a mint mark on it. There were no plain 40's minted without a mint mark. They range from 1940A, 1940B, 1940D,1940E, 1940F,1940G and 1940J.They range in value from $1.00-$2.00 each.....If you will let me know the mint mark, I'll let you know where it was made...PAPPY

Hey Jack...

What a coincidence...Today I found a bag full of foreign coins that I had for quite some and never really bothered with...So happens I WAS going to post pic's of them, but thanks to Pappy Posting that "World Coin Gallery website, I found out some info on them...I believe the 10 cent coin is the exact same one that i have, with an "A" mint mark on it also...Let me see if I can post these pic's one more time...BTW...I checked out that site and then on to E-bay and they had the 10 cent coin in there...mine looks 100% better than the one in E-bay!!!

OOPS... These coins are 1941A and made of zinc...
