Interesting fact

The Pattern 2 Pfennigs coin from Germany (1871-1948) made of Copper weighing 3.28g is a rare and unique coin. It was minted in 1925 as a pattern coin, meaning it was not intended for circulation but rather as a trial or sample coin. The coin features the German eagle on one side and the value "2 Pfennigs" on the other. It is interesting to note that the coin was minted during a time of economic and political turmoil in Germany, known as the Weimar Republic, and its production was likely limited due to the economic constraints of the time. As a result, the Pattern 2 Pfennigs coin is considered a valuable and collectible item among numismatists today.
