Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 5 Mark coin from the Kingdom of Württemberg is that it features a unique design on its reverse side. The coin's reverse depicts the crowned shield of the Kingdom of Württemberg, surrounded by a wreath of oak leaves and a ribbon bearing the motto "Furchtlos und treu" (Fearless and loyal). This design was used on many coins of the kingdom during this period, but the 5 Mark coin is particularly notable for its high silver content and detailed craftsmanship.
