Get Hyper For These Post-WWI German Aluminum Marks
Struck during the days of the German Weimar Republic, these Aluminum 200 Mark coins are among the very few certified by the Numismatic Guaranty Corporation (NGC) as being in high-grade Gem Uncirculated Mint State-65 (MS65) condition. According to the NGC’s population report, only 17 other coins bear this grade – and we have almost all of them! That is, until you secure one or more for your own collection!
The Weimar Republic was a time of hyperinflation due to the payment of reparations required by the harsh terms of the Treaty of Versailles. The cost to make good on the reparations demanded of Germany accounted for about a third of the nation’s deficit from 1920 to 1923. Hyperinflation reached its peak by November 1923 when Germany experienced a 29,500% hyperinflation rate or about 21% interest per day! Were these coins among those struck as part of the payments? Let your imagination run wild while you examine these aluminum coins again and again.
During World War I, Germany began using cheaper metals for its coins due to wartime shortages of precious metals. That situation did not improve after the war. Each aluminum coin in this offer features the Weimar Republic’s Coat of Arms, a left-facing eagle surrounded by the legend “EINIGKEIT UND RECHT UND FREIHEIT” meaning “Unity and Justice and Freedom.” The “A” mintmark of the Berlin Mint can be clearly seen at the bottom of the coin’s reverse below the 200 MARKS denomination.
The hyperinflation combined with the worldwide depression following the stock market crash of 1929 helped pave the way for the rise of Adolf Hitler and his Nazi party. Don’t squander this chance to secure an important piece of history. Order your 1923-A Germany 200 Mark Aluminum coin today!
