Answer 2

The value of a 1948 five deutsche mark bill can vary depending on its condition and rarity. Generally, these bills can be worth anywhere from a few dollars to around $20-50 to a collector. It's recommended to consult with a currency specialist or collector for a more accurate valuation.

Answer 3

It depends on the condition of the coin, the mintmark, and which of the versions you are referring to. Germany produced two different 5 Reichmark coins in 1936, both of which have a portrait of Paul von Hindenburg on the front, are 29mm in diameter, and weigh 13.88 grams in 90% silver (and so contain 0.4016 troy ounces of silver). In both cases, the mintmark (an A, D, E, F, G or J) can be found just to the left of Hindenburg's shirt collar. The slightly more common version has an imperial eagle on the back. In Extremely Fine condition, it is worth about US$10 to $15 (with A and D being the less expensive and G and J the more expensive), while in Brilliant Uncirculated one might bring US$25 to $70. In less than Extremely Fine condition, it is worth little more than the silver value of the coin. The less common version has an eagle holding a swastika on the back. In Very Fine condition, it might bring US$7 to $9 (although the A mintmark is worth a bit less, and the J perhaps US$18). In Extremely Fine condition, it is worth about US$10 to $15 (with the G and J in the US$20 to $30 range), while in Brilliant Uncirculated one might bring US$30 to $50 (with the G and J in the US$80 to $110 range). In less than Very Fine condition, it again is worth little more than the silver value of the coin.

Answer 4

Germany used the pfennig denomination for well over a century. If the coin's date is from the 1950s or later, its value is essentially zero because Germany switched to the euro in 2002 and all old marks and pfennigs were withdrawn.

If the coin is dated earlier than that please post a new question with its date.

Answer 5

There were two different varieties of this coin issued; one with the writing across Potsdam Garrison Church, and one without - and the coin's value with also differ slightly according to mint mark.

Generally speaking, your coin is probably worth between $15 and $25 in circulated condition - and if it's uncirculated, its value will be $40 or higher. (This coin contains .4016-ounce of silver, so at the very least, will be worth silver value.)

Answer 6

It is currently the equivalent of about $3.39 USD. If you are looking to sell it then it averages about $3.30 on the market.

Answer 7

This coin is worth about 1 dollar - 25 dollar depending on the condition
