BANKNOTE FROM THE CITY OF GOTHA

Gotha 100 Mark banknote 1922Reduced size image
Because of the severe inflation that followed World War I, prices were rising faster than the German government could print money.  Many towns and companies resorted to printing their own currency.  This 100 Mark note was issued by the City of Gotha, Germany.  It is dated September 30, 1922.  It is a simple, uniface note that pictures a bishop from the town’s arms.

GERMAN RAILROAD INFLATION CURRENCY

  Deutsche Reichsbahn 10 Million Mark Note, 1923
In 1923, Germany experienced some of the world’s worst inflation. Prices increased hourly and the government could not print currency fast enough to meet the demand.  In order to pay employees and suppliers the Deutsche Reichsbahn (the German National Railways) printed its own currency.  Unlike many of the issues of the period, the notes were accepted throughout most of Germany. We offer a 3 Note set: the 2, 5 and 10 Million Mark dated August and September 1923.  The notes feature a winged train wheel in the underprinting

OLD HIGH-GRADE NAZI COIN

Nazi Germany 1 ReichspfennigWe recently came across an interesting hoard of original Uncirculated bronze Nazi German 1 Reichspfennig coins.  The obverse depicts an eagle holding a swastika within a wreath.  The reverse shows the denomination. The coins are dated 1937 and bear the F mintmark of the Stuttgart mint.   The coins are over 70 years old, yet still retain most of their original mint luster and show only a bit of toning.  I suggest buying these now while they are available, as they may again be hard to find in this nice condition once the hoard is disbursed. Because some coins are slightly toned we are calling them AU-Uncirculated.
