    And...? I think it's bad condition for au53.

    And...? Close-up pictures show a lot of detail and minor tick marks. It looks a lot better in-hand.

    Oh, don't worry about it. If you like it, it's very good. I had some types 5 marks some time ago, not now. It's interesting how they used dead Hindenburg for their legitimacy.

    Peace.

    Well, it was 1936 Germany. I'm just happy it's silver! 🤣

    This is about what I'd call "average circulated" for Third Reich coins. It's rare to find a silver coin below a high VF grade (or even XF) because they all circulated for 10 years or less. There simply wasn't enough time to wear them down.

    I believe (and I may be wrong), that 1936 was the first year the swastika showed up on German coins.
