<p>[QUOTE=&quot;chrisild, post: 305755, member: 39&quot;]This will be difficult to answer without getting into a political debate, but let&#039;s try. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> First, over here in Germany you can collect whichever coins you want, and of course that also includes coins from the nazi years. Selling and buying them is perfectly legal.</p><p><br /></p><p>On the other hand, nazi propaganda is against the law here. Which means that you can buy, for example, historic medals, uniforms, books, badges, etc. - but making and distributing modern reproductions can be problematic. Similarly, if a director plans to make a movie that for some reason glorifies the nazi regime, that will be against the law. Other than that, no problem - and of course a movie that is about or involves the nazi years will have and display nazi symbols. If that was illegal here, many German movies could not have been made. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p>Some German eBay sellers are a little (over-)cautious regarding the depiction of the swastika in coin auctions. Guess that was because some time ago a few DAs tried bringing such cases to court. Surprise, the judges decided that in such contexts there is nothing wrong with the swastika on the coin being displayed in the photo ...</p><p><br /></p><p>Christian[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
