How much money is a 1923 hundert tausend mark worth?

Answer 1

Any German currency with that date and denomination (100,000 marks) was a paper note issued during the hyperinflation period of the Weimar Republic and not a coin.

100,000-mark notes were issued a 2 different times. Sammler.com, a major German collectibles site, lists the following approximate values as of 05/2012:

> 1 Februar (February 1): US$3.25 in average condition, $10.50 uncirculated.

> 25 Juli (July 25): $1.30 / $3.25

Despite its apparent huge value these bills were quickly rendered worthless by galloping inflation, so many were put away with almost no circulation wear. Occasionally people think the high denomination means they're worth enormous amounts but in fact they're barely more than curiosities today.

Most people have this dream of hitting it big with old money, and sometimes it does happen, but there are two things to take into consideration before selling your old money and finding out the value of it.

One thing you have to find out is how many of that mark were made in that year as it's the amount of coins minted that makes them valuable, not the year of them.

Secondly, is this coin worth a collector putting money on? Is it in good condition, not scratched, as if a coin is badly scratched most coin dealers won't have anything to do with it, no matter how many were minted or how old it is. If it's scratched it looses it's value.

Your best bet would be to let a coin dealer look at it and get an appraisal, these people know the coin business, and they'd be better to ask your question to get the right .

Good luck
