      This is a medal issued upon the death of Hindenburg. The inscription on the back "Grosser Feldherr ziehe ein in Walhall" actually translates to "Great General, enter into Valhalla" alluding to the fact that now that he is dead, he will be moving on to Valhalla.

        Now I am very strong confused!

        Now I am very strong confused!

        When I have measured the diameter (36,07 mm / 1.4173 inches),
        I noted a border stamp!!!

        Is: "Bayer.Hauptmünzamt"

        Should be: Bayern Hauptmünzamt

        No German would be so stupid to write Bayern without "n"!!!

        - see picture

        What's going on? Is this stamping a fake or from other countries?

        Help !!!! BR 5tefan

            Yes IMHO means : BAYERISCHES HAUPTM******220;ZAMT, that's why the dot.
