The X# prefix places this squarely outside official government coinage — it's a privately issued medal or fantasy piece, cataloged by Krause in the Unusual World Coins series rather than the standard World Coins volumes. "Aureus Magnus" issues of this type were produced by private minting houses in postwar West Germany catering to collectors and precious metal buyers, not circulating currency markets. Joan of Arc, a French national symbol, appearing on a piece attributed to the Federal Republic of Germany is purely a commercial choice with no political or numismatic mandate behind it.
