Is the acid test a requirement?
There must be a way to tell for sure without hurting the coin.

I wouldn't mind having a crack at those counterfeits myself. Maybe they can let you sell em on here.

I cant tell for sure, but is that worn copper a Liberty Cap? If so, that IS worth some dancing fruit.

 5 Reichsmark Potsdam Church without "21 März 1933" The coin in the bottom left of the picture is one that I have in my collection as well. They came with "21 März 1933" across the obverse and some(Rare Finds) without the "21 März 1933". It appears that you have a rare coin that is not only 90% silver but worth about 35 - 40 dollars as well. http://www.luckylukeonline.com/5kirche.html

well Freedom that coin started in 1934-1935(i think) In 1934 half had the date inscription and the other half did not. All 1935 5 Reichsmark coins of that design did not have that date in the obverse. The 1935A 5 Reichsmark coin I have has a mintage of 23 Million. It is a common coin (At least in my book) Which is a sad thing. It is still a nice coin to add to my collection.

Quote: And they now know what there coins are and there value. It should read; And now they know what their coins are and their value. There refers to a location or place. Their is possessive. They're is the contraction for the use of "they are." There is not a suitable substitute for either their or they're which SO many people do nowadays. Spell check does not catch grammatical errors if those words are spelled correctly. Ed ANA LM-3175

Thank you Gyrene. Usually I jump on that one but missed it. Back up on the grammar police. ;)
A draped bust is worth some fruit as well dude, no doubt.
