Another coin lesson for me. I picked up an awesome lot of coins on feebay. In there were 2 porcelain coins from Germany. I had no clue that they made coins out of porcelain! I'll get some pics up later. They looked like clay or even play money. Glad I researched them.

I think these are from 1921.

HISTORY:

Germany - Porcelain Notgeld ("emergency money" or "necessity money") The majority being produced in 1921 and 1922, at the beginning of a period of hyperinflation following the end of World War I. They were not issued by the central bank (Reichsbank) but by various other institutions such as town savings banks, municipalities, private and state-owned firms. It was therefore not legal tender, but rather a mutually-accepted means of payment in a particular locale or site.

I guess these are rare but common...if that makes sense.

Feebay has most example from $9.99 and up.

I think they're pretty cool. It's neat to build a collection of arcana that few have ever seen before...

of course, you can't sell it later

I have not actually seen any of these either. Neat stuff, Rob!

Porcelain was popular in Gernay through the 1950's and 60's for tokens as well. I have several examples in the hoard at the moment. I'll see if I can get a couple pics up.
