Most of Hitler's Third Reich coins with a swastika carry some, but not much, numismatic value. The 1936A coin in our picture is from Munzenversand Udo Helmig and is in good shape numismatically (that is, from a coin collector's point of view). Helmig's selling price of 120 Euros shows how a rare date and a great condition can pay off in coin value. If you had a coin like this to sell, a dealer would likely pay about one-half the retail price.

There are several coins which look similar and carry identical inscriptions. Be sure you have the right one. Their metallic composition is different, and, sometimes, their date ranges are different. Click on yours.


Here are typical catalog values for bronze-colored coins with the pattern shown in our picture at the upper right. Values are given for *common date* coins and for *better dates*. Values for *better dates* are for coins in average circulated condition. If your coin is not in the *better date* list, then it is a *common date*.
