Additional information

Bavaria's Munich Mint struck a series of pattern coins in 1833 as part of the technical groundwork for establishing Greece's first modern national coinage, following Otho of Bavaria's installation as the first King of Greece. These patterns were never approved for circulation — the final production 1 and 2 Lepta pieces were ultimately struck at the Bavarian Royal Mint under different specifications. The Divo reference places this among a small documented group of copper trial pieces.
