These coins are hard to find in such preservation.
A few days ago, I tried this: http://www.sixbid.com/home/auctions/lanz/m...26/00852H00.HTM
Unfortunately, it was a bit too expensive for me (sold for $190 + premium,tax)
The price of the coin above was $25.
That's a great price on the coin posted.
Not sure if you know or not but Tiffi is a big collector of German coinage. I myself am as well but not to the extent of her. Check out her Omnicoin page sometime.

Wow, I think that's the first one I've seen that hasn't been rusted!
Darn, that's nice.
