anybody collect Nazi silver coins from the 1930s I recently scored some of these Nazi silver coins on Ebay and at a local gunshow. The 5 Reichmark coins are 90% silver and the 2 Reichmark coins are 62.5%. Anybody else like these silver coins? http://home.comcast.net/~yalim01/reich.jpg

Re: anybody collect Nazi silver coins from the 1930s I have a few, more because I'm a history geek than for PM value.

Re: anybody collect Nazi silver coins from the 1930s Thats a good investment or collector item. Ebay had some Mason Knights Templar items from 1910-1920? that were interesting. I'll check for those coins if I remember. I have some stamps from the war era. My dad was a big stamp collector, somehow it was sold off and I had to reconstruct it. Some web sites post them, interesting history.

Re: anybody collect Nazi silver coins from the 1930s No nazi coins, but I got a silver S.S. ring. How did you like the nazi gold bar in the James Bond movie Goldfinger?

How do you know its provenance? Have you had it appraised? There are tons of replicas of these rings out there, mass produced and sold on the internet for 70 - $150 each http://www.pzg.biz/rings_ss_honor.htm But one that had a provable provenance, would be far, far more valuable than that. here is one for $7,500 http://www.antiqnet.com/detail,rare-...ed,416799.html

Ponce Cuba, is a wholeseller of these coins. In fact, he has the only set of Official Welcome to Auschwitz schweins.

Anty, in 1979 I went to the Octoberfest in Munich. While shopping around I came across an antique dealer and I purchased one of those SS rings. I was looking for Nazi uniforms and he told me they were very hard to come by. All he had was this ring. How do you verify that it is authentic? I also came across a coin dealer and I loaded up on all the different years and mint marks in the best condition he had of the 3rd Reich 2 and 5 mark silver coins.

You may be joking, but in fact the inmates had an official currency that was circulated within the camp or so I have heard. Those would indeed be valuable collectibles at this time.

I think you would have to either get in touch with that dealer and ask him where he got it, or take it to some kind of qualified appraiser and find out if there are any indicators that may show whether it is genuine or a replica, such as small proof marks and so forth. I hope you didnt pay too much! If anybody wants to read a book that describes the Runic features of this ring and their symbolic significance, I direct you to the book about "Weisthor" Karl Maria Wiligut, which I think was authored by Michael Moynihan. I can't recall the title at the moment, but it shouldnt be too hard to find on amazon.

Most interesting, thanks! Kind of flies in the face of the whole "death camp" concept, doesnt it?

Re: anybody collect Nazi silver coins from the 1930s Here is a badass website with lots of Nazi replica jewelry. Take a look at the cool meander-- "Greek key" if you will-- on this SS engagement ring. http://www.germaniainternational.com/ss23.html http://www.germaniainternational.com...mentring01.jpg Meander - Origin of term The term derives from the Maeander River river in Turkey, characterised by a very convoluted path. As such, early usage of the term, from the late 1500s, referred to convoluted and windy speech and ideas, as well as the geomorphological feature. The river in Turkey is called Menderes River, south of Izmir, near the ancient Greek town of Miletos. http://cgi.ebay.com/Silver-Ancient-G...QQcmdZViewItem http://hellenic-art.com/jewel/a388.jpg

Yes, silver. I have many myself. Research will tell you more about the silver content. :) Some are zinc though.... So becareful!! Buy a book on coins! See a dealer!! BEWARE!!!!!! DANGER!!!!! WARNING!!!! The Nazis minted no GOLD coins except for SS pocket medallions. Many of these coins pictured were plated with something gold colored. THEY ARE NOT GOLD!

Re: anybody collect Nazi silver coins from the 1930s The Third Reich is a great area to collect! Working on a complete set now. Even found a dealer with a German bank bag full of 2 and 5 mark coins from the denazifacation era. -1

Re: anybody collect Nazi silver coins from the 1930s Hi Specialists. In Germany the silver coins of that dark nazi eara are also still collected by lots of freaks. But should't it be more interesting for you to collect the "Joachimsthaler" which is the bohemian grandfather of the Silver-Dollar? Joachimsthal is next to Germany - only a few miles from here, Nuremberg, where I live. Of course I have also a big box with that 5 Reichsmark coins (with Hindenburg and the "gedaechtniskirche" on the back, not with that sad eagle ... ). But the " i - spot " in a collection could be a really rare coin from Joachimsthal! Greetings from Germany! gutso

Cool! Currently nothing comes up for a "Joachimsthaler" on E-bay. Where do you suggest I would aquire one of these coins?? Welcome to GIM.

Re: anybody collect Nazi silver coins from the 1930s Hi, thank you for your nice introducement! I myself did only see these coins in two auctions the last three years: one in Switzerland (Suisse) and one in England. A third one in France turned out to be a offer without the willing to sell below a fix-price of abt. 5000 $. Thats nonsense even for fanatic collectors. With a little luck you could be able to have a grip at abt. 2000 $ and below. Ebay for sure is the wrong place, at the moment, I checked this out since 4 years. But there you can buy nice replicas of these coins. Not bad, to get an idea of their appearance! Greetings from Germany, gutso

Re: anybody collect Nazi silver coins from the 1930s The Joachimsthaler sounds like a tough coin to find. For the hard to find coins I collect hi end Alexander the Great and Lysimachos tets (like the one in my avatar). I recommend Third Reich 5 marks because of the shortness and ease of the set. Whatever your feelings are about the era it's still a popular coin series. The only thing that would be mildly challenging would be a set in 65+. -1

gutso | 02-05-2007 04:01 PM
Re: anybody collect Nazi silver coins from the 1930s Hi 1*(-1) Of course I understood the reason, why collecting these coins is an opportunity. My home is near the Ex Marrell Barracks in Nuremberg, where the SS used to teach their pupils. 2 Miles away is the Collosseum and the Zeppelinfield. Where the Lightdome had been initiated and the US Troops later then shouted "I wanna be your drill instructor!" ... I already ate Garlic-Pizzas with my US friends at the Jurrassic Tribune where Hitler spoke to his "fans". Although we didn't forget, where we are sitting. At the other side of the tribune, in the summer, they are playing tennis against the jurassic walls. Plick Plock Plick Plock. Very nice, to listen to! But the bombs have scratched their curves in the memories, here. Never forget, that people paid with that coins. Some did pay for their lives. Greetings from Germany, gutso

Re: anybody collect Nazi silver coins from the 1930s Nice Talk! But I still don't understand the focus on that "brown period". For me coins like the Joachimsthaler Groschen of 1520, the Ducatoon of Amsterdam (1601) and the Pillar Dollars and Continental Dollars from 1650-at last 1776 are much more of interest. Thats all, what I wanted to say. They reflect greater history. I know what I say. See you! Greetings from germany, gutso

Ordinary Americans have long since forgotten what happened over 60 years ago and there is enough WWII guilt to go around for everybody. Nazi coins are now just a part of history and nobody I know has hard feelings for Germans today. :smile:

Hi! As far as I know, - in this grade of appearancy - its not worth 15$, perhaps 8-10$. But I think that depends on the market situation, here you buy such coins in packets of 80-100 pieces, sort them and then sell what you don't need. But in General: I would try to get such packages below the Silver Spot. Otherwise, at least for me, that doesn't make any sense. But I'll better be a bit more quiet. Coins are not my special theme, I like more the Silver Valley Idaho and its tiny stock market. If its physical, than it should be nice, too. http://goldismoney.info/forums/images/icons/icon12.gif Greetings from Germany, gutso

Can you put together 20 of the 1934-G Potsdam 5 mark (with 21 march 1933) coins for $8-$10 a coin? It is the lowest mintage of all the 5 mark swastika coins. -1

Hi! No, I will further buy such coins, if I get them under the Silver Spot and they will end up as silver bars. I am rather fond of Silver bars. :s1: Some old silver-stocks went up and away, your good old Silver Valley Idaho may be is kissed by the markets to live again!

So am I to assume that you won't be stamping a swastika on the silver bars? lol It's ok if you melt them down and lose money when you could sell them on ebay for more (your choice). In the end melting will just drive up the prices of the coins already on the market. -1
