Description
The listing, 1940 German Nazi 50 Reichspfenig Coin has ended.
This is a stock photo of a coin I found in my grandfather's attic (sorry, no camera). I believe it is made of aluminium. Mine is not as good as the representative picture and has a couple of small dents. But the lettering and dates are sharp, as well as clear ridges and the Swastika. No minimum credits needed to bid and afree shipping.
Questions & Comments
Maybe someone smarter than me can tell me what this is made of. I know it's not copper, brass, nickel, bronze or steel. Aluminium? Zinc?
Yes they were made of an aluminum based metal-to bad this isn't a 1939 one, those are worth about 60 bucks. But, this is only about 3-4 dollars. My daughter studies german and I was bidding on it for her as a keepsake. Thought she would have liked it in her german stocking-lol. Good-luck!!
Ding on of the left shoulder of the bird that can be seen on the flip side. Mark on the "5" can be seen on the flip side. I never looked at this coin so closely -- my eyes are crossed and this is why I don't do coins -- but instead of the "B" under the "50" in the representative photo above, my coin has an "A" under the "50." If that means anything.
OK, I'm not really a coin guy as you could have read by earlier notes. Obviously you know a lot more about coins than I do. I know about United States mint marks Philadelphia, Denver and San Francisco. And even New Orleans. But I don't know if the mark "A" and "B" means anything on this coin. What do you think?
