<p>[QUOTE=&quot;chrisild, post: 1505042, member: 39&quot;]Actually that coin hardly circulated. The Brüning government had, in December 1931, the brilliant idea to counter deflation this way: If we have a 4 Pfennig coin instead of a 5 Pfennig piece, stores etc. will lower their prices ... Surprise, did not work. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie11" alt=":rolleyes:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> When the coins were issued in 1932, people did not like them, banks did not order them from the central bank. The nazi government, and thus the &quot;Third Reich&quot;, began on 30 Jan 1933 - and on 1 Oct 1933 that coin was demonetized.</p><p><br /></p><p>Christian[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
