Interesting fact

The Pattern 1 Mark coin from Germany, minted in 1921, was the first coin to feature the iconic German eagle, which has been a symbol of the country's national identity for centuries. The eagle was designed by the artist and engraver, Reinhard Siemens, and it has been featured on many German coins since then.
