Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Pattern 1 Heller (Silver pattern strike) 1838 from Free imperial city of Frankfurt (German States) made of Silver weighing 2.11 g is that it features a unique design, showcasing the city's coat of arms and the imperial eagle on the obverse, and the value and year on the reverse. This coin was minted as a pattern strike, meaning it was not intended for circulation but rather as a sample or prototype for a potential coin design. As a result, only a limited number of these coins were produced, making them highly sought after by collectors.
