Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Pattern 2 Marks - Louis III (Pattern) 1913 from Kingdom of Bavaria (German States) made of Silver plated copper weighing 9.94 g is that it was minted during a time of great political and economic change in Germany. The coin was issued in 1913, just a year before the outbreak of World War I, and its design reflects the tumultuous period in which it was created. The coin features an image of Louis III, the last king of Bavaria, on one side, and an image of a crowned shield with the Bavarian coat of arms on the other. The coin's unique design and historical significance make it a highly sought-after collector's item among numismatists today.
