Reichs Mark These are cool to sell on eBay for some reason. Coins and stamps with swazis are cool. Nothing else. I have seen these at yard sales and very rare occasions but I have never found one. Very cool

During the de-nazification of germany most of these coins were taken out of circulation and melted down, still many millions survived as souvaneers of Allied soldiers who brought them back to the USA. The Nazi swatica is actually illegal to depict or sell in most European nations so these coins are probubly dificult to obtain for most people over there. Very cool find!

if he's actually getting a hundred bucks out of them, then I'm in the wrong business

In Germany, Historical forms of the swastica such as flags coins weapons are legal to sell in the appropriate venues such as an antique store. New production or replica items are banned.
