Interesting fact
The Pattern 25 Pfennigs - Wilhelm II (Pattern) 1909 coin was designed by German engraver and sculptor, 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. This particular coin 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 produced as a pattern coin, which means it was created as a trial or sample coin to test the design and production process. As a result, only a small number of these coins were minted, making them highly sought after by collectors today.
