Comment
Schaaf 177 b/G 2; Slg. Beckenbauer 3346Interesting 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 16.99 g is that it was designed by the artist Paul von Kähler, 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 Kehr. This coin was minted to commemorate the silver wedding anniversary of King William II and his wife, Princess Marie of Waldeck and Pyrmont.
