Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Pattern 50 Pfennigs - Aachen (Alfred Rethel - Pattern) 1920 coin is that it features a unique design that was never actually used in circulation. The coin was created as a pattern, or prototype, for a potential new design for the 50 Pfennigs coin, but it was ultimately rejected in favor of a different design. Despite this, the Pattern 50 Pfennigs - Aachen coin remains a highly sought-after collector's item among numismatists due to its rarity and historical significance.
