Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Mark - Wilhelm II (type 2 - small shield) coin from Germany (1871-1948) is that it was minted during a time of significant political and economic change in Germany. The coin was introduced in 1891, just a few years after the country's unification under the German Empire in 1871, and it remained in circulation until the end of World War I in 1916. During this time, Germany experienced rapid industrialization and economic growth, which led to an increase in trade and commerce, and the need for a standardized currency. The coin's design, featuring a portrait of Wilhelm II, the last German Emperor, and a small shield on the reverse side, was meant to symbolize the country's newfound power and prestige. Despite the coin's historical significance, it is still widely collected today due to its silver content and rarity.
