You collect some damn cool stuff, B.

 

Thank you.

 

Wow, really nice coins, both are smokin! I'll have to keep and eye out for the Austrian. How rare are they?

 

its not rare, they made about 5 million of them. They are .800 silver.

 

Love the Drei Mark, never seen it before.

 

I'll have to track one down for sure, GREAT something else I NEED to find LOL. This fourm is such a bad influence :u*meY:

 

It commemorates the 100 year defeat of Napoleon

 

The German coin is about the "An mein Volk" proclamation which was the beginning of the Prussian war against France. See the earlier posts here http://www.cointalk.com/t195939/#post1317842 or here http://www.cointalk.com/t211818-14/#post1532885 for example.
