Marriage Certificate - Heiratsurkunde

[Rylan]

Recently I got this Marriage Certificate from a local gun show. It is third Reich era with some sort of Nazi stamp on the back. I don't know much about these types of paper items, so I am bit curious of the value. I would assume that these paper certificates would be quite common, but I still would like to know a general value. Any other comments or info is appreciated.

This marriage certificate is a very widespread document and as you say quite common.

The documents says that the clerc Hans-Georg Wacker, born 11 Nov 1900 in

Torsballig married the Marie ... Anthorsen, without profession, born 23 Aug

1904 in Stenderupau.

The date of marriage was 29 Oct 1926. The registry office was in Havetoft.

I can add that the town Havetoft is situated in the far north of Germany close

to the border of Danmark in Schleswig - Holstein.

Very interesting, thanks for the info. So the marriage was in 1926, but then on the back it says 1944. What was this date for?

In Febr 1944 the copy of the marriage certificate was made.
