Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Pattern 3 Reichsmark coin from Germany (1871-1948) is that it features a unique design that was never used on any other German coin. The obverse side of the coin depicts a woman's head, representing the German people, surrounded by a wreath of oak leaves, while the reverse side shows a large number "3" surrounded by a wreath of oak leaves and the inscription "REICHSMARK" at the top. This design was created by the German artist and engraver, Reinhard Siemens, and was intended to symbolize the strength and unity of the German people. Despite its unique design, the coin was never widely circulated and is now considered a rare and valuable collector's item.
