<p>[QUOTE=&quot;NormW, post: 1928844, member: 46682&quot;][ATTACH=full]332375[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>I recently acquired this Medal/ token, that commemorates the 1923 hyper-inflation.&nbsp; The obverse has written &quot;The tragedy of the German people&quot; the reverse has a list of prices noted on December 1st, 1923.&nbsp; &quot;1 pound bread= 260 million marks&quot; etc.&nbsp; I have seen 3 versions of this medal, but my big, unanswered question is <u>why someone minted these and when.&nbsp; </u>My only guess, might be that someone was trying to stir up nationalistic feelings later on.&nbsp; But that is only a guess.&nbsp; Anyone have any info on this?</p><p>Thanks[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
