Interesting fact

The Pattern 5 Reichsmark (Saar - Pattern) 1935 from Germany (1871-1948) made of Silver plated (Galvano) weighing 11.17 g is a rare and unique coin that was never officially released into circulation. It was minted in 1935 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 approved for circulation. As a result, only a small number of these coins were produced, making them highly sought after by collectors.
