A true NAZI!!!!

[silvereagle78]

I can honestly say I never thought I would find something like this out of a machine wrapped roll. It is a 1944 10 Pfennig from the third reich, swastika and all! I was hoping to find a U.S. war nickel or even a Canadian victory nickel to compliment it, but no such luck, just a slick buffalo. This also will mark my oldest foreign coin found CRH. I haven't done any research on it yet but I am guessing it is zinc or similar. It also has a "F" mintmark which I am guessing is Frankfurt. HH, SE

That's a good find. I love finding foreign coins. Yer buffalo has a mintmark. I've only found one buff with a MM and it was slick too.

Kindest regards,
Kantuck

I once got a nazi 1 pfenning in a roll of dimes and I recall someone else getting one in a half roll- I guess they dumped all of grandpa's stash!

Very nice finds. Here's the skinny on German mint marks.

German coins are produced at five different mints, coins from each of them can be identified by their mintmarks, A = Berlin, D = Munich, F = Stuttgart, G = Karlsruhe, J = Hamburg.

UPDATE: During WWII, the Third Reich had their own mints/mintmarks. They are as follows:

Nazi 3rd Reich Mint Marks
The 3rd Reich had a number of mints (coin factories). Each mint location had its own identifiable letter. It
is therefore possible to identify exactly which mint produced what coin by noting the mint mark (letter)
on the coin. Not all mints were authorised to produce coins every year. The mints were also only
authorised to produced a set number of coins with some mints allocated a greater production than
others. Some of the coins with particular mint marks are therefore scarcer than others. With the silver 2
and 5 Reichsmark coins, the mint mark is found under the date on the left side of the coin (see scans
below). On the smaller denomination Reichspfennig coins, the mint mark is found on the bottom center
of the coin.
A = Berlin
B = Wien (Vienna)
D = München (Munich)
E = Muldenhütten (Dresden)
F = Stuttgart
G = Karlsruhe
J = Hamburg

This link will take you to a very good source for your coin and it's history. I have several that were passed down to me, one is
rare and 90% silver, the rest are just history.

Great find ! I found mine 6'' deep in a park in San Angelo TX. I'm guessin a soldier(US) dropped it after the war.

Wow, I guess I was a little off on my assumption of the mintmark Thanks for straightening me out.
