German Gold Coin History
As a country that spent most of its past as a collection of states, it should be no surprise that there are four mints in Germany. The oldest of these is the Hamburgische Münze, located in Hamburg which has been in operation since 834 AD. The Staatliche Münzen Baden-Württemberg however was established in 1998, and when Latvia joined the eurozone in 2014 was chosen to mint their coins.
Older German Marks will typically feature a portrait of German Emperor's Wilhelm I, Friedrich III and Wilhelm II. More recent coins will be commemorative euro coins.
