<p>[QUOTE=&quot;sonlarson, post: 2313418, member: 15488&quot;]After WWI Germany was split into Two Zones. Actually it was 5, but later 2. The Western zone became the Federal Republic of Germany and the eastern part became the Democratic Republic. In 1990 the Democratic Republic was dissolved and Germany reunited. At that time the coinage of East Germany was recalled and melted. This created a need and an opportunity for producing after market uncirculated coins sets. Most of these sets are made up of different years. The set I have has 1982,1989, and 1990 coins. I would be happy if all were the same year but that&#039;s OK. I would really be happy if the 5 Pfennig was a 1982 instead of a 1990. 1982 was the key date for the 5 Pfennig. Worth about $175 vs. $2 for the 1990. All these coins are only worth $2-$3 each in Unc. condition, but I think it comes together as a set. </p><p>BTW, I noticed that Coin World mentioned this set in their January 2016 issue. </p><p>The article inspired me to search for and purchase another set which I&#039;ll post when it arrives from overseas.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]466538[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]466539[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
