Quote:
Melt it down and give the silver back to its rightful owners!
A bit extreme there, for two reasons:
1. These coins were not made by the Nazis while they were in power in Germany - the "1945" death date of Hitler shown on the top one, and the absence of either from my 1992 edition of "Unusual World Coins", confirms this. So the coins were not made from precious metals stolen by the Nazis.
2. At least one of them (and perhaps both of them) is, as I said before, silver-plated brass and not solid silver. Not much point in melting them down.
As for the OP's suggestion they were made in Germany, it's possible, but I doubt it. Such items are illegal to make, buy, sell or own in modern Germany (and in France, and probably several other nations in Europe, too). It would be a brave neo-Nazi movement indeed to openly defy such a ban, and they couldn't exactly sell them on the street as fundraisers. They are more likely to have been made in America, or somewhere else where no such prohibitions have applied.
Even though they weren't made by the Nazis, they were, however, most likely made by some kind of neo-Nazi organization, post-WWII. It is understandable that many people in today's society would rather not encourage the manufacture, purchase and ownership of such items, even in countries where doing so isn't actually illegal. I did a google search and found someone asking about a "coin" exactly like the top one on a
German coin forum. They were warned it was illegal neo-Nazi propaganda and told the best place for it was the rubbish bin.
