Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 20 Mark coin from the Kingdom of Prussia is that it was minted during a time of economic and political change in Germany. The coin was introduced in 1871, the same year that the German Empire was formed, and it features an image of King Wilhelm I on one side and the Prussian eagle on the other. The use of gold in the coin's composition also reflects the country's shift towards the gold standard during this period.
