Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Pattern 2 Reichsmark coin is that it was designed by German artist and sculptor, Reinhold G. V. M. Kramer. Kramer was a prominent figure in the art world and was known for his work in various mediums, including sculpture, painting, and graphic design. His design for the Pattern 2 Reichsmark coin features a portrait of Adolf Hitler on the obverse side, which was a common feature on German coins during the Nazi era. The reverse side of the coin depicts the German eagle and the denomination. The coin was minted from 1936 to 1939 and was made of brass, weighing 7.6 grams. Despite its relatively short mintage period, the Pattern 2 Reichsmark coin remains a popular collector's item among numismatists today.
