Askari · November 22, 2003 4:45AM

For a little colonial atmosphere, how about an 1894 German New Guinea 2 Mark (KM-6):

lordmarcovan · November 22, 2003 4:47AM

Askari · November 22, 2003 4:54AM

A little something old:

1558 East Prussian 1 Denar of Albrecht Hohenzollern, Grand Master of the Teutonic Order and first Duke of Prussia

Askari · November 22, 2003 5:13AM

... and something new:

An anonymous undated [1994?] Commemorative of von Stauffenberg and his role in the German Anti-Nazi Resistance

Askari · November 22, 2003 5:18AM

... and just plain timeless classic:

A 1997 Easter Medal drawing upon the superb work of Albrecht Dürer (1471-1528)

Askari · November 22, 2003 5:26AM

ClausUrch · November 22, 2003 5:33AM

Ach, Wie Schoen!!!

Askari · November 22, 2003 5:35AM

... scarce remembrances of the forgotten:

A brass Verein für das Deutschtum im Ausland award medal honoring those who served Germany in its lost colonies and other foreign lands

Askari · November 22, 2003 5:46AM

... and proud commemoration of its fallen:

1913 German Patriot Leipzig Centennial medal showing the famous Leipzig Völkerschlacht-Denkmal War Memorial

ClausUrch · November 22, 2003 5:51AM

Trier - "My Hometown!!"
Carl Caspar von der Leyen
1652-1676
1 Petermenger 1670
Silver - Size of US dime

boiler78 · November 22, 2003 6:16AM

Goetz 25 pf patterns. IMO not some of his best work but they are interesting.

Sorry I can only post in english well actually Hoosier which is nearly english.

The obverse on this last coin is particularly odd.

Askari · November 22, 2003 9:02AM

I've always wondered if he didn't do that last one for fun. It would have fit his sense of humor. You'll see what I call the "strangled eagle" on a variety of German and Austro-Hungarian coins.

ClausUrch · November 22, 2003 11:01AM

It has been rumored that the eagle on the last proof is the Austria-Hungover Eagle Variety actually designed by Goetz on Jan. 1, 1909, instead of 1908 as the date would tend to have one believe.

rhound1977 · November 22, 2003 6:20PM

Wow, Great looking stuff here all, I submit a 1911 D 2M from Bavaria nice toning on this piece, but the camera does not catch all of it.
