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, Reinhold H. H. Müchler. Müchler was a prominent artist during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, and his work can be found on many German coins from that 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 as a pattern coin, which makes it a rare and valuable collector's item.
