<p>[QUOTE=&quot;chrisild, post: 1241511, member: 39&quot;]Yes, a medal. The designs of the two sides, however, were taken from Westphalian &quot;notgeld&quot; issued during the hyperinflation period. One side shows Carl vom Stein, a Prussian minister who spent part of his life, and died, in Westphalia. The other side depicts the poet Annette von Droste-Hülshoff who was born near Münster, Westphalia. Contrary to other notgeld issues, these Westphalian coins never actually circulated; they were rather souvenirs and fundraisers.</p><p><br /></p><p>Mintage of this medal was about 10,000. The price should be around €150 for a VF/ss piece ...</p><p><br /></p><p>Christian[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
