Comment
NeusilberInteresting fact
One interesting fact about the Pattern 1 Mark - Wilhelm II (type 2 - small shield - Pattern) ND (1910-1916) from Germany (1871-1948) made of Copper-nickel weighing 5.99 g is that it was designed by the German engraver and sculptor, Reinhart Schmidt. Schmidt was a prominent artist during the early 20th century and his designs were used on many German coins during that time. The coin features a portrait of Wilhelm II, the last German Emperor, on one side and an eagle on the other. The eagle is surrounded by a wreath and the coin's denomination, "1 Mark," is written in bold letters at the bottom. The coin's design is considered to be quite beautiful and is highly sought after by collectors.
