Interesting fact

The Pattern 5 Mark coin from Germany (1871-1948) made of Silver weighing 25.61g is a rare and valuable coin among collectors. One interesting fact about this coin is that it was designed by the German engraver and artist, Reinhard Schuster, who was known for his intricate designs and attention to detail. The coin features a portrait of a young woman representing Germany, surrounded by oak leaves and the imperial eagle on the obverse, and the reverse depicts the German coat of arms and the denomination. The coin was minted in 1925, during the Weimar Republic, and was intended to be used as a regular circulating coin, but it was never released into circulation due to the economic and political instability of the time. As a result, only a small number of pattern coins were produced, making them highly sought after by collectors today.
