Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 3 Mark coin from the Grand Duchy of Baden is that it features an image of Frederick II, also known as Frederick the Great, who was the ruler of Prussia from 1740 to 1786. He was known for his military conquests and his support of the arts and education, and is considered one of the most important figures in German history. The coin was minted during the reign of his great-grandson, Frederick II of Baden, who ruled from 1907 to 1918.
