Oh hey, that's a classic IndianGoldEagle, I think one of those was my first porcelain coin. Well, here is my latest porcelain coin.  I'm not sure what the significance is of the pipe smoking fellow? On some paper notgeld it appears he is represented as farmer with a scythe as well as a pipe. |

After a hiatus the bug hit me again for these porcelain tokens.   The fish coin is about 20 m, Boldixum on the reverse is the town and Fohr is the island in the north sea the town is located on. The kneeling priest coin is a bit over 40 mm. |

Beautiful porcelains, chrsmat71! Quote:
The kneeling priest coin is a bit over 40 mm. Wow - that is a huge coin, no matter the material. A piece of porcelain that large surviving this many years is amazing! Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures

Yeah, I guess most of these didn't actually enter circulation but kind of went straight to the collector market, so many are in great condition. hfjacinto those coins are very cool, I didn't know they existed. I just added one of those to my "get list"!

A few more porcelain pieces from Weimar Germany. This medallic piece (about 40 mm) commemorates political and military unrest between Poland and Germany in Silesia post World War I. The obverse shows children being taken from their mother, with a legend that reads something like...""Those who separate us from the German hearth remain a disgrace, unworthy of any love."  This 25 mm piece is from Stadtlengsfeld in central Germany has a cool eagle, a strange shape and kind of strange color for porcelain German coins. This is also not made by Meissen porcelain, I'm trying to get a few coins my other manufacturers.  |

Excellent coins, and very interesting ones too, chrsmat71! The 5 Mark is wonderfully detailed. That's a very curious bird on the Stadtlengsfeld one.
