Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Pattern 3 Reichsmark coin from Germany (1871-1948) made of Brass weighing 11.75g is that it was designed by German artist and engraver, Reinhart Heydrich. Heydrich was known for his work on various German coins and banknotes during the early 20th century, and his design for the Pattern 3 Reichsmark coin features a depiction of a German eagle on the obverse side, and a shield with the coat of arms of Germany on the reverse side. The coin was minted in 1925 as a pattern coin, meaning it was not intended for circulation but rather as a trial or sample coin. It is considered a rare and valuable collector's item among numismatists today.
