    I am looking to buy a pre-1933 (preferably gold, but silver is fine as well) German coin with Germania depicted on it, but so far the only such coin I have been able to find is this silver one from 1925:

    Does anybody here know of any other pre-1933 German coins with Germania depicted on them?

    I have found another one, she is on the reverse of this silver mourning thaler coin from 1898:

    Here's a couple from a quick numista search. They're thalers, so likely quite expensive. It also pulled up a multitude of patterns. The issue is Germany wasn't unified as a whole political entity until 1871 with each separate state issuing their own currency. Even these pieces I found don't refer to the female on them as Germania. Your best bet is probably going to be an early 19th century pattern and hopefully an off metal gold strike.
