Interesting fact
The Pattern 1 Mark 1922 coin from Hamburg is a rare and unique coin, with only 10,000 pieces minted. It was designed by the artist Erwin Puchinger and features the Hamburg coat of arms on one side and the value and year on the other. The use of aluminum as the material for the coin was a novelty at the time, and it was the first time that a German state had issued a coin made of this metal. The coin's rarity and historical significance make it a highly sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
