Mercedes-Benz Gold Medal Proof Carl Benz and Gottlieb Daimler
Artistic Coinage. And valuable keepsakes. This Edition is dedicated to the car pioneers Carl Benz and Gottlieb Daimler.
On 29 January 1886, Carl Benz applied for a patent for his Benz motor car no. 1. It -was a three-wheeled vehicle with an internal combustion engine and electric ignition that demonstrated its viability for real-life use during a test drive, with his wife, Bertha Benz, at the wheel. In collaboration with Wilhelm Maibach, Gottlieb Daimler developed the first motorbike and the mobile single-cylinder four-stroke engine. At the World Exhibition in Paris in 1889, he presented the first four-wheeled motor vehicle with an internal combustion engine.
In 1926, Benz & Companie and the Daimler-Motoren-Gesellschaft merged to form the car manufacturer Mercedes. The brand is famous worldwide and has become a virtual poster child for the “Made in Germany” slogan.
