Interesting fact

The Pattern 5 Reichsmark coin from Germany (1871-1948) made of Tin-lead weighing 21.41g is a rare and unique coin that was never officially released into circulation. It was designed as a pattern coin, which means it was created as a prototype or sample coin to test the design and production process, but it was never mass-produced or distributed. This makes it a highly sought-after collector's item among numismatists and historians.
