Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Pattern 1 Mark - Probe (Test) 1921 from Germany (1871-1948) made of Nickel (Nickel -Aluminium) weighing 5.08 g is that it was designed by the German artist and engraver, Reinhard Siemens. Siemens was known for his work on various German coins and banknotes, and his design for this coin features a depiction of the German eagle on the obverse side, and a wreath of oak leaves on the reverse side. The coin was minted in 1921 as a test piece, and only a small number of them were produced, making it a rare and valuable collector's item.
