Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 20 Mark coin from the Grand Duchy of Baden is that it was minted during a time of economic turmoil in Germany. The coin was introduced in 1894, just a few years after the country had experienced a severe economic crisis, known as the "Founder's Crisis," which had a significant impact on the German economy. Despite this, the coin was made of gold (.900) and had a relatively high denomination of 20 Marks, indicating that it was intended to be a valuable and reliable form of currency. This fact highlights the resilience and determination of the people of Baden during a challenging period in their history.
