Prior to German unification in the late 19th century, Germany was comprised of a large number of independent states. Of the dozens of states, Prussia emerged as the most powerful, eventually unifying with or subjugating the rest. These coins were produced after German unification, as many of the former states continued to operate their own mints. The coins feature Wilhelm II (r. 1888-1918), the last King of Prussia and Emperor of Germany. Wilhelm II abdicated following the defeat of Germany in World War I and lived out the rest of his life in exile.
