[QUOTE="doug444, post: 1562578, member: 38849"]Probably 75% of the Third Reich minors are quite inexpensive (KM97, KM90, KM91, KM92, etc.). Looks like there's over 300 dates and mint combos you could find for $2 or less. For 50 pfennig and up, prices begin to surge. Whether the lower-grade 2 and 5 Reichmarks are selling as bullion, I don't know. The zincs, of course, are hard to find in decent shape; most are corroded almost beyond recognition. You might start with a Type Set, and see which designs appeal most to you. Types KM95, KM80, and KM85 are going to be tough. As far as bullion content, none appear to be over 0.4016 Troy ounces. The beauty of grubbing through dealers' foreign junkboxes is there's always the chance of a rare mintmark, e.g., 1936-G 10 pfennig = $150+. BTW, do dealers still have foreign junkboxes??:confused:[/QUOTE]
