...With school. We will see the whole city, but do anyone have any hints were I could look for coin/stamps shops???

Unforatnly, we don't have that much time for ourself, but you will never know.

Also, experiences from Berlin would be welcome

Thanks,

Dennis

Dennis:

There is a coin shop in the Europa Center, which is near the Zoo at the end of the Kurfurstendam (everybody calls it the Kudam, which is one of the main streets) in Berlin. I can not remember the name of the shop, but it was a good one. I was in the Army in Berlin and have visited it a number of times since.

I haven't spent much time in Berlin since the wall came down, nor did I ever actively seek out coin shops then or later.

Perhaps you can PM Udo and see if he has any connections?

Good luck.

And I suppose you'll be visiting the Pergamon Museum? Perhaps they have coins (but not for sale!).

Please share some pictures with us when you get back. Thanks!

Hi Dennis,

3 Mark stated a very good address

it is:


Thomas Pollandt
Europacenter Nr. 30
10789 Berlin

Tel: 030/2621888
E-Mail: TEDNAL@aol.com

I'm sure you'll visit the "Kudamm" with your class and you'll have the opportunity to visit that shop.

In my opinion it really sucks to search for a coin shop in a unknown city, but however, if you have time you can search for the following shops as well:


Niels Menzel

Get yourself a city-map, or search on google for "Stadtplan Berlin" to find out where those shops are located. I'd suggest to call them on the phone before you visit them, to ensure that they are opened in the time frame you're going to visit them.

Nothing sucks more if you've found that damn shop after hours, just to realize that it is closed when you arrive.

Oh, I forgot to say GOOD LUCK
