Interesting fact
The Pattern 5 Pfennigs - Wilhelm II (type 2 - small shield - Pattern) 1915 from Germany (1871-1948) made of Brass weighing 2.55g is a rare and valuable coin among collectors. It was minted during a time of war, specifically during World War I, and its design was meant to symbolize the strength and resilience of the German people during this period. The coin's small shield design was a departure from the traditional large shield design used on previous coins, and it was only used for a short period of time, making it a unique and sought-after collector's item.
