<p>[QUOTE=&quot;chrisild, post: 983637, member: 39&quot;]Yes, Meissen did make quite a few porcelain notgeld pieces. They circulated to a very limited extent only because they were not excatly durable. Most people found them interesting as collector items and kept them. The ones that Meissen issued for the state of Saxony, for example, are not really expensive: Mintages of the 1921 issues without the golden border were roughly half a million each, and these cost less than €10. Local issues may well be more expensive.</p><p><br /></p><p>Side note: This year the Federal Republic issued a collector coin that celebrates 300 years of porcelain production in (what today is) Germany. <u><a href="http://www.deutsche-sammlermuenzen.de/bmf/art/shop/gedenkmuenzen/silber_2010_10_euro_porzellanherstellung_zoom.jpg" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.deutsche-sammlermuenzen.de/bmf/art/shop/gedenkmuenzen/silber_2010_10_euro_porzellanherstellung_zoom.jpg" rel="nofollow">And what does it show?</a></u> A broken plate. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Christian[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
