Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Pattern 1 Deutsche Mark (Pattern) ND (1950) from Federal Republic of Germany made of Gold (.900) weighing 11.15 g is that it was designed by the German artist and sculptor, Reinhart Heinsdorff. Heinsdorff was known for his work in creating commemorative coins and medals, and his design for the Pattern 1 Deutsche Mark features a portrait of a young woman symbolizing Germany, surrounded by oak leaves and the value of the coin. The coin was never put into circulation, but it is considered a rare and valuable collector's item among numismatists.
