    I received some foreign coins today, and they included German these proof sets from 1969-1985 and other older german coins. Do these have any value, or is there a good website to reference for these items?
    thanks

    I will create a new thread for some asian coins, and see if any look interesting.

    In the first image you show three different types of sets - the blister pack type (1973) contains a silver 5 DM coin and the then two 2 DM coins. F is usually the most common mintmark; the Stuttgart mint makes most coins that are in use here. That 1973 F proof set had a mintage of 9,100. Value* according to the Jaeger catalog is about €80.

    The blue set is apparently from the early 1980s; cannot read the year on the 1 DM coin, but judging from the three 2 DM coins, it must be from between 1980 and 1987. Stuttgart (F); value* roughly €15-20.

    Don‘t know what the early proof sets looked like, but if the 1969 and 1970 sets from Karlsruhe (G) you show are actually proof sets, they are worth* about 80 to 90 euro each.

    * This "value" refers to what hat a buyer may have to pay.

    The last piece you show looks nice but is not a coin. Cannot tell you much about that medal; the website of that museum, in the state of Bremen, is here: http://www.dsm.museum/edsm.htm
