<p>[QUOTE=&quot;chrisild, post: 1909, member: 39&quot;]The most valuable coin ever issued in the Federal Republic of Germany is the Germanisches Museum 5 marks commem (1952) which costs about €1000 (unc) or €4000 (proof). Then there are coins where only certain year/mintmark combinations are worth quite a lot, such as the regular 5 mark coin 1958 J/Hamburg (€4000/€6500). Relatively inexpensive - but then the country is only about 50 years old (founded in 1949).</p><p><br /></p><p>As for older modern pieces, there are a few (mostly gold) coins from the late 1870s which cost&nbsp; &quot;five digit&quot; amounts, such as Baden 10M 1880 (vz/st €60,000) or Saxony-Coburg-Gotha 20 M 1872 (vz-st €45,000). Again, if you collect by type only, you can choose less expensive years instead.</p><p><br /></p><p>And there is the famous Saxony 3M silver &quot;Lutheran Reformation&quot; commem issued in 1917. Pretty rare, costs between 40,000 (vz) and 60,000 (st=unc). Even type collectors may have to skip this one ...</p><p><br /></p><p>Christian[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
