Germany – Third Reich – 5 Reichsmark 1933 G – Martin Luther – NGC AU Details – J#353 – EXTREMELY RARE!
This is a historically significant and extremely rare 5 Reichsmark coin from Nazi Germany (Third Reich), struck in 1933 at the Karlsruhe Mint (“G”). Featuring the portrait of Martin Luther, this coin was issued to commemorate the 450th anniversary of his birth.
With a total mintage of only 12,200 coins, this is one of the lowest-mintage issues of the entire Third Reich numismatic series. Surviving examples in AU (About Uncirculated) quality are nearly impossible to find today, making this piece a true rarity for serious collectors.
Graded AU Details by NGC, this coin is not only authenticated but also preserved in remarkable condition — a feat considering its historical context and extremely limited production.
The appeal of this coin lies in its historical value, scarcity, and the prestige of NGC certification, which confirms its place among the finest known. A must-have acquisition for any advanced collection of German coins, WWII-era artifacts, or rare silver commemoratives.
