<p>[QUOTE=&quot;chrisild, post: 1476513, member: 39&quot;]You got some nice pieces there. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> As you wrote, the 5 DM silver circulation coin is dated 1951-1974. The 5 DM commems (issued at face) were silver until 1979/Archeological Institute, after that in Cu-Ni for a few years. Those &quot;silverless&quot; commems were not very popular, so they were later replaced with 10 DM silver pieces (from 1987/Berlin until 2001/Constitutional Court) and then €10 silver issues (from 2002/Euro Cash until early 2011/Liszt).</p><p><br /></p><p>As for the &quot;screaming&quot; eagle, keep in mind that the bird on the coins of the Federal Republic is a heraldic eagle. It always looks to the left (from the viewer&#039;s perspective), the beak is open, and the tongue is visible. However, on coins the eagle is to be adapted to the overall design. So some eagles look pretty fancy ... or weird. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Christian[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
