Interesting fact

The Pattern 10 Mark coin featuring Albert Schweitzer is a rare and unique coin, as it was never officially released into circulation. It was minted as a trial coin, also known as a "mule," and only a few samples were produced. This makes it a highly sought-after collector's item among numismatists and enthusiasts of German Democratic Republic-era coins.
