Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 20 Mark coin from Grand Duchy of Mecklenburg-Schwerin is that it was minted during a time of economic and political change in Germany. The coin was issued in 1872, just a few years after the formation of the German Empire in 1871, which unified various German states under a single government. This period saw significant economic growth and modernization in Germany, and the coin reflects this change with its use of gold and its detailed design.
