Found this at a local "junk" shop and thought it was interesting:

Specially-Designed-Coin-Sheet-For-New-Guinea-Coins-1894-1945

I've got some New Guinea shillings to go into the pockets on the bottom right but I will be waiting a long time to fill those for the German New Guinea coins.

Nice pickup, MachinMachinMan! Yeah, I've seen what the German ones go for.

The German New Company coins are very difficult to find, and are extremely expensive in MS grades,
especially so for the gold 10 and 20 Marks.
There is no provision for the gold coins in this sheet.

Also, there is no provision for the proof / pattern copper nickel Penny and Half Penny coins in this sheet.

I have a silver 5 Marks in AU-50 but I consider that this coin is outside of my collection, because it was gifted to me by a missionary family about 40 years ago.
PNG Government issued a commemorative 5 Kina coin of the same specifications which I acquired to compliment the 5 marks.

I do have a complete 4 coin set of shillings 1935, 1936, 1938, 1945 all in MS-65 condition, but they are not particularly valuable.

If all coins mentioned above were represented in MS condition, such a collection would have a value of well north of USD 100,000
