The depicted church is the Garrison Church in Potsdam. This coin was first released on the occasion of the first anniversary of the Nazi take-over, with the date Hitler seized power put on the coin (March 21,1933). On a following issue the date was taken off. The Potsdam Garrison Church was depicted on both the 2 and 5 reichsmark coins. __________________ My collection : http://www.omnicoin.com/?collection=bart   01-08-2009, 06:19 PM   #6 (permalink) kidromeo I'M LEGEND     Join Date: Jun 2008 Location: Republic Of India Posts: 1,751 My Mood: Quote: Originally Posted by bart Coins with this design are not scarce.

I've got quite a few pfennigs, jettons and marks but strangely none seem to be third reich.
