UBB.threads Forums General Interest Community Center Nazi coins

Hi everyone,

I recently went to watch the movie X-Men: First Class and in the last scene the bad guy gets killed by a Nazi coin he gave to the soon to be bad guy, Magneto ( I sound like a kid writing this )

See this link



So, I just want to know and if I know myself, I'll probably want to buy a set of Nazi coins but there are some questions I want to ask.

1. Are there reproduction of these Nazi coins? if yes, how do you tell? Are there any reference books out there about this?
2. How many varieties are there?
3. How much do they cost?
4. Do you guys think that after this movie, the price of nazi coins will go up? hahahaha


By the way, when I was in Munich recently, I stayed in a good friends home , and even though they dont like to talk about the war & hated it, I did see a single nazi coin on display ... it was kinda weird really.

Also, I did google about this and came up with some sites.

Really appreciate for any input in this & thank you in advance

Cheers,
Ibrahim

There are fake fantasy Nazi coins, usually silver and picturing Hitler.

There are a lot of them,,and the smart silver hoarders put a ton away over the last few years.

They make a great display when you put the more common ones on and show front and backs.. Still affordable!

Here's a photo of the most common Nazi coins. With the rise in silver prices, the 5 mark and 2 mark coins are increasing in value. The 5mark is around 90% silver and the 2 mark is around 50%.

Coins and biljets are great! They dont cost much, well not all of them anyways, and, they display awesome, or can truly add to a display. Silver Reichsmarks are obviously super, but theres also the nickle looks nice. Here a 2 Deutschmark coin from 1939;





Not Hitler but Hindenburg at the back! A national hero, buried in the Tannenburg Deutschnational Denkmal. Little sidenote, this camera had shots of that monument undeveloped in it. Here one shot that came out of the camera of the inside of the monument. Learn more here.

The background, is an add from 1938, of the Deutsche Bank. Its intresting to look at the history of german money and banks a bit.



Not just german money is intresting, but, dutch money too, from 1930s and 1940s. Sometimes, people made jewelry from coins, that showed the queens head, or the dutch crown. But thats not to show here maybe.

Here's a better photo

- there they are [good photos],they look good, still affordable, and the silver ones can only go up and up..
An old member here friend of mine has many 5 gal. spackel buckets full of the silver coins. Years ago we all made fun of him buying them but I guess he got the last laugh.,,anyway,,
There are many ways to display them and they look great..
