Some newps for me

Burnt a hole in my pocket last night at our coin club meeting. One U.S $5 gold and 2 rare darksiders. The gold is generic but it's gold I can afford on my budget. Figures I would have to pick something expensive to collect. As for the darkside coins, this is something new for me. I never thought I'd shell out some good money for foreign coins but I could not pass on the Martin Luther coin as I'm Lutheran. As for the Korean 1 yang, I liked the looks of it, and the fact that it's a rare coin sealed the deal for me.

Watch out for the German coins- they can be habit forming.
Still, it's not as expensive a habit as US gold!
PS- it just dawned on me that your Luther coin is 1933. Boy, talk about a pivotal year in Germany, huh? The "G" mintmark is Karlsruhe, if you didn't already know. If you're Krauseless, I can give you the catalog stats for that and your Korean piece.
