Interesting coin!
The legend 'Bank Deutscher Lander' on the 50 pfennig was changed to 'Bundesrepublik Deutschland' in 1950, but about 50,000 1950-G 50-pfennig coins exist with the earlier legend, and are quite valuable. During my pre-Euro visits to Germany, it was always quite exciting to get a 1949 50pf in change, and to turn it over - but I was always disappointed!

Wish I was into coin collecting when I was living in Germany back in the early 1980's. Nice coin.

I have a full date run of those coins, that circulated, from 1949 to 1995, except the one NumisRob mentioned and a 1995A. Nothing special about the 1995A, I just have got one yet.

A friend who doesn't collect gave me about 40 or 50 German coins. I have put them in 2x2's and looked them up on numista so I may post some more of them if anyone is interested.
