What is the value of a 5000 mark reichsbanknote dated December 2 1922?

Nothing now (except for historical value), it was worth less than one dollar in December 1922, due to the hyper-inflation in Germany at the time. Many people have kept the old money from that period as souvenirs. I have some in the million mark reichsbanknote denominations. These make good exhibits for history lessons, keep it if you are interested in history. Otherwise find someone to donate it to.

See Wikipedia, it has an article on German hyper-inflation of the 1920's.

The above is not accurate at all except for that the value in 1922 was less than a dollar.

The value of a 1922 German Reichsbanknote for 5000 marks depends on 2 things; firstly, which issue series was it, the Weimar Republic issued 4 different banknote series in 1922 and secondly the condition of the note, this is the international standard; http://www.banknotes.com/grading.htm

What does G4 and F12 mean for coins?

G4 and F12 are two of the many possible grades describing a coin's condition.

Conditions are normally broken down in to major categories designated by letters, and numbers are then used to further refine the condition within those major categories.

The letter grades are:

  • P: Poor. So worn that the coin is barely recognizable, and generally not worth collecting.
  • G: Good, actually quite worn but the design and date are recognizable. Usually the lowest collectible grade
  • VG: Very Good. Still quite worn, but with more details showing
  • F: Fine. Moderate wear, with many details visible
  • VF: Very Fine. Slight wear, all details visible
  • XF (or EF) Extremely Fine. The coin has minor wear.
  • AU: Almost Uncirculated. The coin has been in circulation but has essentially no wear
  • MS: Mint State. The coin is in the same condition as when it was minted.
  • PR: Proof. A coin struck with special dies giving it (usually) a mirror-like finish, and made for sale to collectors rather than spending.

Within those grades, numbers are assigned ranging from 1 (the lowest) to 70 (the highest). For example, the numbers from 4 to 7 are assigned to the Good category, so a G4 coin is more worn than a G7, but neither one is in decent enough condition to fall into the VG range. Similarly F grades range from F12 to F19, and so on.
