Interesting fact

The Clara Zetkin pattern coin was designed by artist Erich Ott, and it features a portrait of Clara Zetkin, a German Marxist theorist and women's rights activist, on the obverse (front side). The reverse (back side) of the coin depicts a stylized image of a factory and a farm, symbolizing the unity of workers and peasants in the socialist state. The coin was never officially released into circulation, but a small number of pattern coins were produced as trial strikes, making them highly sought after by collectors today.
