About the Third Reich of Germany
As the Third Reich of Germany was established in 1933 by the ascent of the Nazi party and Adolf Hitler’s appointment to Chancellor, the new government set to work to fix the ailments facing the nation and its citizens. While not necessarily a top priority, regular coinage soon reflected the changes.
The 5 Mark piece has its origins with the old Germanic states. Adopting the denomination for the new regime was an easy matter though in most instances its name was changed from 5 Mark to 5 Reichsmark. The standard composition of 90% silver was retained and the general diameter of the coins was set at 29 mm with an average thickness of 2.5 mm.
