| Additional information |
The "Aureus Magnus" series was a privately commissioned fantasy issue — not struck by any federal mint or authorized by the Bundesbank. These pieces occupy the murky category of "Medallic issues" in German numismatics: legally produced but without any official monetary standing. The X# prefix in the Standard Catalog of World Coins specifically designates such non-circulating fantasy and medallic pieces, separating them from government-sanctioned coinage.
The "Children of Earth" designation marks this as Type 2 within the series, distinguished from Type 1 by die differences documented in the X#M83 reference.
