1941 Germany (Third Reich) 10 Reichspfennig

Daniel writes: I found a couple of questions that were very similar to mine, however, I wanted to be sure of the history of my coin. It is a 1941 Nazi coin. On one side there is an eagle holding the swastika with the words “Something Reich” along the top and the date (1941) along the bottom. On the back all I can make out is a large “10” in the center with writing along the edge. Please tell me everything about the coin, including rarity, metal, usage, and value. Thank you.

You have a 1941 Germany (Third Reich) 10 Reichspfennig (100 reichspfenning=1 reichsmark). The coin was minted in an aluminum-bronze alloy from 1936-39 but was struck in pure zinc from 1940 to the end of World War II in 1945. It was struck at all of the German Mints. The coin features an eagle with outstretched wings perched on a wreath which encloses a swastika. The legend DEUTSCHES REICH (German Empire) is below in a semi-circle. The reverse shows a large “10” with the legend REICHSPFENNIG around. A small letter, the mint mark, is below the “10”

German Third Reich Mint Marks

  • A – Berlin
