jdmern Pillar of the Community United States 1949 Posts	Posted 10/07/2015 9:31 pm Eggenfeld 1921 50 Pfennig Zinc- Notgeld The obverse of a disembodied hand struck me as rather odd, however, when paired with the legend, which I believe loosely translates to 'Our Future', it would seem to me a rather novel way of depicting 'The future is in our hands' Any other thoughts or corrections?

Dagaz Valued Member Slovenia 459 Posts	Posted 10/08/2015 04:20 am Interesting design, kind of like it. However my dyslexia strikes again: I read "Unsure Zukunft", and was wondering why there was one word in English and one in German, as well as what's the whole meaning of the coin.
