| Beschrijving voorzijde | The obverse features a bold, modernist typographic design within a raised square frame, itself enclosed by a wavy scalloped border. The inscription DEUTSCHES REICH is arranged across three lines in large, sans-serif block lettering filling the central field. The date 1908 is distributed around the outer margin of the square frame, with the digits split on either side and top and bottom, integrated into the overall geometric composition. The design is entirely typographic, with no effigy or allegorical figure, reflecting an experimental aesthetic for this pattern issue. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Pattern coinage from the German Imperial period rarely reached circulation, and this 1908 25 Pfennig piece is no exception — it belongs to a series of trials conducted as the Reich's monetary authorities debated subsidiary coinage reforms in the years before the First World War reshaped every financial priority. The 25 Pfennig denomination had a troubled history: an earlier nickel issue ran from 1909 to 1912 before being discontinued, and copper-nickel trials like this one suggest the metallurgical question was still open in 1908.
Patterns of this type were struck in very limited numbers for internal evaluation, not public release.
