tabbs Posted July 12, 2005 Report Share Posted July 12, 2005 This is the 50 fr piece ... was too lazy to scan the other side :-) which is the same as that of the 10 and 20 fr coins. Saarland's coins had the same specifications (composition, size, denomination ...) as the corresponding French coins of those years. And when Saarland joined the Fed. Rep. in 1957, Germany first planned a commem on that occasion. For diplomatic reasons ;-) the coin was not made, though. In 2007, however, a 10 euro coin will commemorate the 50th anniversary of Saarland's becoming a state of the Federal Republic.

Art Posted July 12, 2005 Report Share Posted July 12, 2005 Nice collection there. So you only need the 50 to have a nice Saarland type set. I'll take a look during the week. I may have one for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
