Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a portrait of Annette von Droste-Hülshoff, a German poet and novelist who was born in Westphalia in 1797. She is considered one of the most important German-language writers of the 19th century, and her works are still widely read and studied today. The coin was issued in 1923 as part of a series of commemorative coins honoring notable figures from Westphalia, and it is made of aluminum, which was a relatively new material at the time.
