[QUOTE="Firenze, post: 2533783, member: 82217"]I went to a local auction yesterday and the outcome was amazing. I bought two large lots that cointained several hundred coins and banknotes (including very scarce notes from around the world and about 200 Notgeld issues) for a price that probably is about 20 % of the lots value. Among the coins there are two that I'd like to show here because they fit in my collection really well. The first one is a Reichskreditkassen 5 Reichspfennig 1940 A. These are rather scarce to get and even though the 1940 A issue has a pretty large mintage, such a Zinc coin with remains of mint luster is not very common. [ATTACH]541835[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]541836[/ATTACH] The second one may not really be fit for "only the best" because it is not struck very well and also shows some damage but I really like it anyway. It is a Prussian 6 Gröscher, minted in Breslau around 1750 (you cannot really see the date, maybe due to 'Justierspuren' which I do not really know to translate).
