Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Pattern 1 Reichsmark coin from Germany (1871-1948) made of Nickel weighing 5.6g is that it was designed by the German artist and engraver, Reinhart Heydrich. Heydrich was known for his work on various coins and medals during the Third Reich era, and his design for the Pattern 1 Reichsmark coin features a stylized eagle and swastika, which was a common motif in Nazi symbolism.
