<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Seba79, post: 5270638, member: 70480&quot;]Very nice, the legend <i>&quot;Sich regen bringt Segen&quot;</i> it means <i>&quot;Hard work pays off&quot;</i>. </p><p><br /></p><p>The engravers were Louis Oppenheim and Reinhard Kullrich;</p><p><br /></p><p>Louis Oppenheim (1879–1936) was a German graphic artist, painter and type designer. Born in Coburg, Oppenheim studied in London from 1899 to 1906. He moved to Berlin and started his work as a graphic artist in 1910, signing his work with his initials, &quot;LO&quot; and working for clients such as AES, the Reichsbahn, Persil and Adrema. His posters are considered a significant product of the &#039;Berlin poster style&#039;. Oppenheim worked for the type foundry Berthold and created a handful of significant and widespread typefaces, all of which share modernist characteristics, such as Lo-Type and Fanfare which are still in wide use today. Also, he designed the first coin of the Weimar Republic in 1919.</p><p><br /></p><p>Reinhard Kullrich (born February 23, 1869 in Berlin; died in 1947) was a German medalist at the Berlin mint. Reinhard Kullrich was the son of the medalist and coin die cutter Friedrich Wilhelm Kullrich (1821–1887). Among other things, Reinhard Kullrich created this 50 Pfennig piece together with Louis Oppenheim from 1919 to 1922, together with Professor Josef Wackerle from Munich the 3 Mark piece in 1922, the 1 and 2 Rentenpfennig in 1923, the Danziger 2 Gulden piece in 1923 together with Professor Dr. Fisherman. The 1 Mark piece followed in 1924 again together with Professor Josef Wackerle, the 1 Reichspfennig coin (1924–1936) and in 1932 the 4 Pfennig coin (<i>“Brüning Taler”</i>).[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
