<p>[QUOTE="vtvick777, post: 1535624, member: 28910"]I just recently became interested in the German Marks from the Empire years. The seller aspencoins on ebay has just an amazing amount of these coins that he sells weekly. They are so interesting, because even in the same denomination (3 Marks for example), they have many different areas represented on the obverse of the coin. Originally, I liked them solely becuae of the eagle design on the back, but now I have seen more of the areas that can be on the front and some of them are so cool. A couple auctions for these just ended and unfortunately the best looking designs, I'm assuming are the rareset, and sell for the most, which I can't afford. Here are some of the examples of the coins I am talking about. My favorites are Hamburg, Lubeck, and Bremen. So far I have seen Baden, Bavaria, Bremen, Hamburg, Lubeck, Prussia, Saxony, and Wurttemberg. If you know more about these coins, such as are there any more 'areas' then the ones I have listed. Also, what is the official name for 'areas'? Is it provinces, or states maybe?</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH]203844.vB[/ATTACH][ATTACH]203845.vB[/ATTACH][ATTACH]203846.vB[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
