<p>[QUOTE=&quot;scottishmoney, post: 1336146, member: 12789&quot;]German coins from that era are pretty interesting.&nbsp; One thing I notice is that by 1917-8 the German mints got a bit sloppier on quality so errors that were not previously available start in earnest by that time.&nbsp; Somewhere I have a 1918 50rpf or half mark that has a neat little die crack on it.&nbsp; It is a bit of a curiousity also because it was still being struck in silver, whilst many of the smaller denominations were getting struck in iron by then.&nbsp; Very soon it&#039;s silver value eclipsed it&#039;s nominal value and it was hoarded by the family that brought it to America in 1920, then gave it to my father in law in the 1960&#039;s.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
