| Additional information |
Fantasy pieces cataloged under the "X#M" series are private strike issues with no governmental authority behind them — produced for the collector market, sometimes as political statements, sometimes purely for profit. This particular piece, with its Germanic nationalist titulature, falls into a category of mid-century fantasy coinage that emerged from postwar collector circles in Western Europe and the United States, occasionally tied to émigré communities or monarchist groups keeping symbolic traditions alive on paper and in silver.
No circulating authority ever issued an "Argenteus" denomination in 1961.
