<p>[QUOTE=&quot;CamaroDMD, post: 1150915, member: 5233&quot;]Here is the not so rare, it is dated 1948.&nbsp; Notice there is no swastika.&nbsp; This coin was minted after the allies were in control, they removed the swastika from the coin.&nbsp; These allied occupation coins were minted from 1945-1948.&nbsp; They were made in denominations of 1, 5, and 10 Pf.&nbsp; Not all denominations were minted in all years: the 1pf was 1945-46, the 5pf was 1947-48, and the 10pf was 1945-1948.&nbsp; They are all made of zinc and the majority are common.&nbsp; However, because of the low quality of material they were made out of...and how many have been stored over the years, they can be hard to find nice MS non-spotted examples.&nbsp; Mine is a 1948-A 5pf in MS64 with a lot of luster remaining and only minor spotting.&nbsp; Mine is pictured below.&nbsp; It is a common date/MM but it is a nice example.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p style="text-align: center"><img src="http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b97/RichieB16/1948-A5ReichspfennigAlliedOccupatio.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Now, for the really rare allied occupation coin.&nbsp; It is a 1pf dated 1944-D.&nbsp; It is possibly a pattern and there is only one example known.&nbsp; This is a 1944-D allied occupation 1pf with no swastika...not a 1944 1pf with swastika.&nbsp; The 1944-D 1pf with swastika is very common.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
