Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Pattern 5 Reichsmark coin from Germany (1871-1948) is that it was designed by the famous German engraver and sculptor, Reinhart Heydrich. Heydrich was known for his work on various coins and medals during the Weimar Republic and Nazi era, and his designs often featured intricate details and symbolism. The Pattern 5 Reichsmark coin, in particular, features a depiction of the German eagle on one side and a portrait of Paul von Hindenburg on the other, who was the President of Germany at the time. This coin is considered a rare and valuable collector's item among numismatists today.
