<p>[QUOTE="chrisild, post: 1152768, member: 39"]The €10 coin from 2006? Yeah, pretty much. (I posted a link only since the piece is not exactly on topic here.) The dome on the left is the Academy of Arts, the comes the Frauenkirche, the Castle Tower, the Hofkirche and the Semper Opera. And the silhouettes at the bottom give an idea of what was there in mid-1945. Some of these buildings on the river had been rebuilt in the GDR years (with the selection based on the government's political criteria as well as funds, or rather the constant lack thereof), others followed later. The Semper Opera for example was rebuilt in (or rather until) 1985; the GDR issued this commem on that occasion:</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://www.muenzauktion.com/mages/pic/artid488_combined.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p>(Image: Mages - Click on the image to get a larger photo.)</p><p><br /></p><p>Lots of room for fingerprints again. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> But a nice design, i think.</p><p><br /></p><p>Christian[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
