Interesting fact

The 5 Mark coin from the Zeughaus Museum in 1990 was designed by artist Helmut Andexlinger and features a unique reverse design that showcases the museum's iconic building, which was constructed in the 16th century as an armory for the Saxon dukes. The coin's obverse features the coat of arms of the German Democratic Republic. This coin is particularly interesting because it serves as a symbol of the country's rich history and cultural heritage, and its unique design makes it a standout among other coins from the same era.
