Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Pattern 1 Reichsmark coin from Germany (1871-1948) made of Brass weighing 4.62g is that it was designed by German artist and engraver, Reinhard Siemens. Siemens was known for his work on various German coins and banknotes, and his design for the Pattern 1 Reichsmark coin features a depiction of a German eagle on the obverse side, and a wreath of oak leaves on the reverse side. The coin was minted in 1925 as a pattern coin, meaning it was not intended for circulation but rather as a trial or sample coin. It is considered a rare and valuable collector's item among numismatists today.
