<p>[QUOTE=&quot;chrisild, post: 1150955, member: 39&quot;]Yes, I have quite a few of those too. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> What I have always found interesting is that, while the coins from the Federal Republic of Germany had that country name right away, the coins from the German Democratic Republic (East G.) simply used &quot;Deutschland&quot; until 1956.</p><p><br /></p><p>Also, the design with the gear and the wheat (?) ear - that you show in your post #2 and #5 - has an interesting history. The Berlin mint made that design - in 1943. For Nazi Germany&#039;s &quot;Reichskommissariat Ukraine&quot;. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie11" alt=":rolleyes:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> Ultimately those Ukraine coins were not minted, except for a few &quot;50 Kopeken&quot; test pieces ...</p><p><br /></p><p>Christian[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
