We can't tell you about the grades without seeing the coins, and because we don't know what the grades are we can't offer much help with values. Can you post pics of the coins ?
1/2 Mark is KM# 17 1 Mark is KM# 14 if they are in poor condition they are worth about $3.00 for melt. -steve
As a world coin collector with quite a few german, and german states piece in my collection, I may be able to shed some light if you could post up some pics. Welcome aboard KTS.
