This is a pattern strike for a 5 Mark piece that was never approved for circulation — Bavaria's Louis III had assumed the throne in November 1913 following the forced abdication of his mentally incapacitated brother Otto, and the outbreak of war in August 1914 effectively ended any practical path to a regular coinage issue in his name. The German states lost their minting rights for silver coinage entirely under wartime consolidation, leaving Louis III among the least-represented Bavarian rulers in circulating silver.
Schaaf 53/G 4 places this among a small group of documented pattern variants. Surviving examples are rare precisely because production stopped at the trial stage.
