<p>[QUOTE="chrisild, post: 842276, member: 39"]These bags or "starter kits" were issued in mid-December 2001; you would pay 20 DM and get the equivalent in euro (€10.23). Initially those starter kits were pretty popular among collectors, but there is not much demand any more, I think. The current issue of the Schön catalog lists them at €16 - which is still a little more than the face value.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now opening the bag (and putting the single coins in holders) would indeed prevent further damage such as scratches.
