Unlike U.S. mint marks which relate to the mint's location, German mint marks are sequential by order of the mints' dates of establishment. The most common ones are
A = Berlin
B = Vienna (Nazi era only)
B = Hannover (19th century)
D = München (Munich)
E = Muldenhütte
F = Stuttgart
G = Karlsruhe
J = Hamburg
Many other mint marks were used prior to the 20th century, and some have been assigned to more than one city depending on when the mint operated and what government was in power at the time. Please see the Related Link for more information.
