I actually bought this coin because it’s the year my father was born. No he’s not German.

I love how the obverse portrait design of the 1938 German 2 Mark is large and covers almost the entire face of the coin. I do not have much exposure to old world coins, and I don't think I remember seeing more than a couple of German coins with the swastika symbol. Thanks for sharing this coin. It is fascinating! Great show, bestie! 💪 Have a wonderful Wednesday, take care 🥰🌺🤙 and a ton of Hugs 🤗🤗😘

Cool coin. I have a bunch of late 30's German stamps, but no coins from the era.

Thanks. I have one stamp from that era purely by accident. Not a stamp collector at all

Yeah, I'm not into stamps. But my late uncle was and I inherited his collection. There's literally no market for stamps now, I had a coin/stamp dealer tell me sight unseen, he didn't want them.
