Interesting fact

The 1914 2 Marks coin from the Kingdom of Bavaria, featuring Louis III, is interesting because it was minted during a time of great change and upheaval in Germany. The coin was issued just a year before the outbreak of World War I, and it was one of the last coins minted before the German Empire was established in 1918. Additionally, the coin was made of silver, which was a valuable and sought-after metal at the time, and it weighed 11.111 grams, making it a substantial coin.
