  Did you think it was made of silver when you bought it?

  Nice one, they are light on weight, and a nice one could be fooled for silver at a quick glance.

  Keep in mind that this time in history, Germany was under increasing inflation. I suspect this coin was produced out of non-precious metals for that reason. The silver content would have been worth much more than the denomination on the coin.

  I hope you didn't pay too much, these Alu coins are easy to find.
  
  The silver ones with almost the same design are much more expensive!

  I've got $3.50 in the coin, that includes the shipping.
