Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Pattern 3 Reichsmark coin from Germany (1871-1948) is that it was designed by the German artist and sculptor, Reinhold Begas. Begas was a prominent artist of his time and is known for his work on various coins, medals, and sculptures. The Pattern 3 Reichsmark coin features a portrait of Paul von Hindenburg, a German field marshal and statesman, on one side, and an eagle on the other. The coin was minted in 1932, during a time of political and economic turmoil in Germany, and it was intended to be used as a circulating coin, but it was never widely released. Today, it is considered a rare and valuable collector's item.
