Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Pattern 3 Mark coin from Germany (1871-1948) is that it was designed by the famous German artist and sculptor, Reinhold Begas. Begas was known for his work in the Art Nouveau style and his designs were often used on coins, medals, and other forms of currency. The Pattern 3 Mark coin features a depiction of a woman representing the German nation, surrounded by oak leaves and a crescent moon, which symbolizes the hope for a brighter future. This design was meant to reflect the values of the Weimar Constitution, which was the constitution of Germany during the Weimar Republic, and it is a unique and interesting aspect of this coin.
