German 20 Gold Mark Coins
The early history of the term 'Mark' can be traced back at least to the 11th century when the mark was mentioned in Germany as a unit of weight (approximately eight ounces) most commonly used for gold and silver
In the 19th century, the Mark was a common small coin in the German states, but the value varied between states. The Gold Mark was equal to 100 Pfenning. Gold Marks were used in circulation and are seen in 10 and 20 Mark denominations. Coins graded as mint state usually command a premium over the prices seen onscreen, especially where the coin is of a low mintage

The Mark replaced the Taler and the Guilder in 1873, soon after the creation of the German Empire. The Mark then became the standard value and the money of account for the empire
After WWI the German Mark collapsed as Germany suffered from hyperinflation. The stem currency instability and to stabilize the economy, the Gold Mark was replaced by the Rentenmark in 1924, at which time one US Dollar was worth 4.2 billion marks
In 1948 the Deutsche Mark also known as the “German Mark” was introduced into West Germany, and over the next several decades it developed into one of the world's leading currencies, challenging the Dollar and Pound Sterling on international markets

In 1990 the Deutsche Mark became the official currency of reunified Germany, making East German Marks obsolete and exchangeable at parity with the West German Mark
However, in 2002 the Deutsche Mark ceased to be legal tender after the Euro became the country’s sole currency. Gold German Marks are popular with historical Gold collectors
Some Gold German Marks are extremely allusive given the low mintages which makes collecting these issues very challenging. Auronum offers live prices to investors looking to sell their Gold Marks at competitive premiums
