Yeah, I think that is one of the more outstanding designs. Some went the other way like this:



real simple but still pleasing. It was a free for all. I think the Bielefeld coin is a private issue...maybe by a bank.

wow! Drusus: I love the ladies locks on the 1000 note!

I hadn't heard of Notgeld until the other day, when I saw somone listing a few reasonably priced coins! All I knew was the design was beautiful & $2.50 seemed a bargain. Here are my only 2 Notgel pieces at the moment:

1920 Bonn 10 Pfenning Beethoven



1920 Aachen

The Aachen coin is one of my all time favorite. I have always thought that coin is making a statement of some kind. Instead of the usual lovely, young, vibrant, woman you see a world weary old Market Frau. It shows the level of creative freedom these guys had when designing and minting.





I also have the Bonn series but havent taken the photos yet...

Not a bad buy for 2 bucks and some change

That Aachen one looks great and as for the Duren it looks like something our resident coin carver would have done
