Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Pattern 3 Reichsmark coin from Germany (1871-1948) made of Silver weighing 1.37g is that it was designed by the 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 the German eagle on the obverse side, and a portrait of the German poet and philosopher, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, on the reverse side. This coin was minted in 1927 as a pattern coin, meaning it was not intended for circulation but rather as a prototype or sample for a potential future coin design.
