Germany-III Reich Coins
The monetary history of Germany during the Third Reich (1933-1945) is a fascinating and complex period in numismatics. During these years, significant changes occurred in the German monetary system, reflecting the economic policies and ideology of the Nazi regime.
Coins and banknotes of the Third Reich
The Reichsmark was the official currency during this period, replacing the Rentenmark in 1924. The most common coins were 1, 2, 5 and 10 Reichspfennig, as well as 1, 2 and 5 Reichsmark. Banknotes ranged from 5 to 1000 Reichsmark. The iconography on coins and banknotes changed drastically, incorporating Nazi symbols such as the eagle and swastika, as well as portraits of party leaders.
Numismatic milestones
An important milestone was the issuance of silver commemorative coins for events such as the 1936 Olympic Games in Berlin. In addition, during the war, there was a shortage of metals, which led to the minting of zinc and aluminum coins. In 1944, the so-called "invasion bills" were issued, designed for use in occupied territories, marking a unique chapter in the numismatic history of this period.
