Coins from the drawer

2-euro coins and Deutsche Mark: what is rare?

Honestly, first: almost every 2-euro and Deutsche Mark coin is worth exactly its face value. A few features give the exceptions away — and OWNY checks them for you from the photo.

Rare 2-euro coins Sought after are mostly coins from small states with small mintages — Monaco, the Vatican, San Marino, Andorra — and mis-strikes. OWNY reads country, year and motif from the photo.

Deutsche Mark coins with silver 5-mark pieces up to 1974 and the 10-mark commemoratives contain silver: 7 g to just over 14 g fine. What that comes to at today's price, the gold and silver calculator works out.

Year and mint mark With Deutsche Mark coins, year and mint mark (A, D, F, G, J) often decide: some combinations are far rarer than others. OWNY reads both and gives a range as orientation.

Mis-strike or wear? A mis-strike happens at the mint, for example an off-centre motif or a wrong edge. Scratches, dents and discolouration come later and do not make a coin rarer. If in doubt, a coin dealer checks the piece itself.

And then?

Frequently asked questions

How reliable is the coin value?

It is an automatically produced, non-binding orientation value: not an appraisal, not an authentication and not a buying price. Where a single figure would mislead, OWNY shows a range. For valuable pieces an appraisal is worth it.

Does OWNY recognise mis-strikes?

OWNY describes what shows on the photo. Whether a coin really is a mis-strike cannot be told for sure from a photo; a coin dealer or appraiser checks the piece itself.

What are my Deutsche Mark coins worth?

Most of them exactly their exchange value: the Bundesbank exchanges Deutsche Mark coins into euros free of charge and without a deadline, 1.95583 marks for 1 euro. More comes from coins with silver, such as 5-mark pieces up to 1974 and the 10-mark commemoratives, and from rare years with certain mint marks.

What happens to my photo?

For the free scan on this page we send it to an AI service (Google AI API) for the recognition; it is not stored. Until you register, it stays in your browser only. In OWNAMIC we keep it in your account.
