Interesting fact

The 5 Mark coin minted in 1902 to commemorate Albert, the King of Saxony, features an error in its design. The coin's obverse side bears the inscription "Albert König von Sachsen" (Albert, King of Saxony), but the reverse side incorrectly states "Albert König von Sachsen-Coburg und Gotha" (Albert, King of Saxony-Coburg and Gotha). This mistake was likely caused by a miscommunication between the mint and the designer, and it makes the coin a unique and interesting collector's item.
