Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Pattern 25 Pfennigs - Wilhelm II (Pattern) 1909 from Germany is that it was designed by sculptor and engraver, Reinhart Schmidt. Schmidt was a prominent artist during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, and his work can be found on various coins and medals from that time period. The coin's design features a portrait of Wilhelm II, the last German Emperor, on the obverse, and an eagle on the reverse. The coin was never officially released into circulation, but it was minted in small quantities as a pattern coin, making it a rare and valuable collector's item.
