[QUOTE="kanga, post: 2611708, member: 9270"]My interest in Germany is strictly limited to my birth year (1941). That means that most of the coins are struck in zinc. And anyone familiar with zinc knows it doesn't age well. But since this is a fun thing for me as long as the coins (1, 5, & 10 rpf) are reasonably identifiable I'm okay with them. I think I've seen some of the zinc coins with original surfaces. Either that or they were cleaned. The German coins that I'm VERY likely never to get are the 5 & 10 rpf military issues. They are pricey!!![/QUOTE]
