[QUOTE="CamaroDMD, post: 1960320, member: 5233"]I'm not 100% sure this is a Stuttgard minted coin...as the MM is kinda blurry. To me, it looks more like an A than an F (which is the most common). What can make these coins confusing is the combination of designs. The obverse (the side with the Eagle and the date) was used on 4 distinctly different coins (meaning paired to 4 different reverses). Those are: KM82 - Reverse: Postdam Church with Date (1934 only) KM83 - Reverse: Postdam Church without Date (1934-35), which this reverse is KM84 - Reverse: 175th Anniversary of Schiller's Birth (1934-F commemorative) KM86 - Reverse: Hindenburg (1935-36) - which this obverse would match Of course...to make matters even worse (not that it applies here), but then KM94 came along (1936-1939) featuring the Hindenburg reverse with a new "Reich Eagle" obverse. This coin appears to combine the KM86 obverse with the KM84 reverse.[/QUOTE]
