| Additional information |
The Weimar-era Reichsmark coinage was subject to prolonged political and economic debate throughout the mid-1920s, and several competing designs were struck as patterns before final types were settled. Schaaf 319/G 4 places this piece within a documented series of 1926 trials — most of which never advanced beyond a handful of specimens.
Pattern survival rates from this period are erratic. Reichsbank records were poorly preserved through the Second World War, and the institutional history of many trial strikes exists almost entirely through the coins themselves.
