(Gemering/pcp) This year sees the 29th edition of MICHEL Coins Germany. Thanks to its annual publication, it provides collectors with the latest information on the field of ‘German coins since 1871’. It also covers related areas and the euro coins of the countries participating in the euro, which have been in circulation in Germany since 2002.

From 2025 to 2035, Germany will issue a new series of commemorative coins entitled ‘Influential Women’ with a face value of €20. The €2 coin “35 Years of German Unity” marks the start of a new series entitled “Unity, Justice and Freedom”, in which a €2 commemorative coin will be issued each year to honour politicians who have had a special influence on the history of the Federal Republic of Germany. For collectors of €2 commemorative coins, the new coins to be issued in 2024 by all participating euro countries have again been listed with their respective mintages and prices.

The trend in the coin market to pay high prices for coins in above-average condition has continued. This is reflected in the prices listed in this edition of the catalogue. The development of the gold price has also been taken into account for the gold coins.

The section on D e u t s c h – O s t a f r i k a emergency coins has been completely revised, as new variants of the 5 and 20 Heller coins and the 15 Rupiah gold coin have been discovered, which are sure to be of great interest to collectors.

Coin prices have been adjusted to reflect market conditions. Euro coin mintages have been added where known and the 2025 issues have been included. For German coins, the catalogue also includes a preview of the planned issues for 2025 and the issuance programme for 2026.
