Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Pattern 3 Mark - William II (Silver wedding anniversary) 1911 from Kingdom of Württemberg (Württemberg, German States) made of Silver weighing 17.02 g is that it was designed by the artist Paul Hagemann, who was a well-known German engraver and medalist. He was responsible for creating the coin's obverse, which features a portrait of King William II, while the reverse was designed by another artist, Albert Moritz. This coin was minted to commemorate the silver wedding anniversary of King William II and his wife, Queen Charlotte, and it is considered a rare and valuable collector's item among numismatists.
