<p>[QUOTE=&quot;princeofwaldo, post: 1530645, member: 24091&quot;]The coin depicts the LZ-127 aka &quot;Graf Zeppelin&quot; which was launched in 1928, but made it&#039;s most memorable flight in 1929 when it travelled around the world.&nbsp; The 1929 date commemorates this flight.&nbsp; The 1930-A indicates the year the coin was struck (only year as it turned out) and the letter &quot;A&quot; indicates the mint in Berlin.&nbsp; I f you want to learn a little more about Zeppelins, have a look at this website.&nbsp; You can easily get lost in it and spend hours looking at all the old postcards etc from the era.&nbsp; The photos of the bridge in the LZ-127 are like something right out of a 1950s Ed Wood science fiction movie!</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.airships.net/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.airships.net/" rel="nofollow">http://www.airships.net/</a></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH]202229.vB[/ATTACH][ATTACH]202230.vB[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
