This arrived today.

K-432

OBVERSE: Gustav Stresemann, who served as Germany’s foreign minister from 1923 until his death in 1929. He was the co-winner of the Noble Peace Prize in 1926.

REVERSE: The tombstones represent key negotiations that Stresemann participated in, including setting post-World War I borders, Germany’s admission to the League of Nations in 1926 and the Young Plan in 1929 to settle Germany’s war reparations.

The tombstones, along with the weeping willow, apparently tell us what Goetz thought of those events as they related to Germany.

    I am just curious, is there Edgepunch "KGoetz" on this one?

    The silver ones wouldn't have the Goetz edge mark. They would convey the Bavarian mint signature and the fineness.
