<p>[QUOTE=&quot;chrisild, post: 680093, member: 39&quot;]The &quot;Germanisches Museum&quot; coin was the very first commem that the Federal Republic of Germany issued (officially in 1952, actually in Sep-1953). Mintage 200,000 - including 1240 proof pieces. As for the price, well, roughly €500 for vz/EF and €800 for st/BU. Have a look here for example:</p><p><a href="http://www.muenzauktion.com/shops/search.php5?ps=50&amp;m=all&amp;wm=wrd&amp;lang=de&amp;searchstr=germanisches+museum&amp;branche=1&amp;sindsvalue=" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.muenzauktion.com/shops/search.php5?ps=50&amp;m=all&amp;wm=wrd&amp;lang=de&amp;searchstr=germanisches+museum&amp;branche=1&amp;sindsvalue=" rel="nofollow">http://www.muenzauktion.com/shops/search.php5?ps=50&amp;m=all&amp;wm=wrd&amp;lang=de&amp;searchstr=germanisches+museum&amp;branche=1&amp;sindsvalue=</a></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>All 5 DM silver coins have a weight of 11.2 g and a diameter of 29 mm. And yes, there are fakes around. Also modern copies which will usually have some kind of stamp with the &quot;modern&quot; date.

Note the additional oval &quot;2004&quot; stamp, and the 999 silver sign on the other side. The actual coin is Ag 625.</p><p><br /></p><p>Christian[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
