· German Empire

The small- and silver coins which our grandparents and great-grandparents carried as Mark and Pfennig in their purse represents the first single currency in the for centuries continuing history of Germany. They can tell fascinating stories from two world wars. The empire was the last epoch in Germany to settle payments by gold coins. It is a marked out and containable field of collecting. Because of their high stable values, today these coins represent a good and sensible investment.
