1 Reichsmark

The nickel Reichsmark replaced the earlier silver issue in 1933 partly as a cost-saving measure and partly because the new Nazi government was already diverting silver reserves toward rearmament. Mintmarks span five facilities — Berlin, Munich, Muldenhütten, Hamburg, and Stuttgart — and annual output varied sharply depending on how aggressively each mint was allocated metal that year.

The 1936 Munich (D) and 1939 Hamburg (J) dates are notably scarcer by mintage figures and command premiums accordingly.
