| Additional information |
The "Argenteus - Aureus Magnus" titles are numismatic affectations with no basis in official German coinage nomenclature — this piece has no status as legal tender and was never issued by the Bundesbank or any authorized German monetary authority. The X# prefix in the reference confirms it: World Coin's "X" catalog series covers unofficial pieces, tokens, and fantasy issues outside recognized government coinage programs. What exactly motivated this particular private issue in 1960 remains unclear from available records, and inventing a backstory would do the catalog no favors.
