<p>[QUOTE=&quot;buckeye73, post: 8394935, member: 93155&quot;]Congrats on that low mintage 1896G 10 pfennig.&nbsp; I collect the non-silver German Empire, Weimar Republic, and Third Reich coinage by date and mintmark.&nbsp; The vast majority were pulled from the LCS world coin “junk” box. I do not have the 1896G, but do have a similar 1892G (mintage 300,000).</p><p><br /></p><p>The tougher German coins collected over the past 30 years or so are 1873D pfennig (mintage 52,000) purchased from a dealer in a 2x2, 1885E pfennig from junk box, with luster which came back ANACS MS 63. Others from junk box 1876J pfennig, (2) 1891J pfennig, unc. 1873A 2 pfennig, 1904J 2 pfennig (44,000 mintage), 1875H, 1891E (173,000 mintage) 5 pfennig; 1873G, (2) 1894E (260,000 mintage) 10 pfennig; 1923F 50 rentenpfennig KM 34 (120,000 mintage)</p><p><br /></p><p>A 1901A 50 pfennig (90% silver) KM 15 (194,000 mintage) was purchased from a dealer in a 2x2. An 1873D mark(mintage 244,000) was pulled from the world coin junk silver box.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>The German, as is other world silver coinage,&nbsp; is generally pulled, with few exceptions, from the world coin junk silver box in my pursuit of world type coinage.</p><p>Dan[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
