Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Pattern 5 Mark (Württemberg - Pattern) 1925 from Germany (1871-1948) made of Silver weighing 26.6g is that it was designed by the German engraver and sculptor, Reinhold H. H. Meyer. Meyer was a prominent artist during the early 20th century and his designs were used on various coins and medals in Germany and other European countries. The Pattern 5 Mark coin features a portrait of King Wilhelm II of Württemberg on the obverse and an image of the Württemberg coat of arms on the reverse. It was minted in 1925 as a pattern coin, meaning it was not intended for circulation but rather as a trial or sample coin. Today, this coin is considered a rare and valuable collector's item among numismatists.
