Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Pattern 3 Mark - Frederick Francis IV (Pattern) 1915 from Grand duchy of Mecklenburg-Schwerin (German States) is that it was designed by the artist Hermann Hahn, who was a prominent German engraver and medalist. Hahn's design features a portrait of Frederick Francis IV on the obverse, and an image of a Mecklenburg griffin on the reverse. The coin's unique design and the fact that it was never officially released into circulation make it a highly sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
