Multi-Media Summary
World War II changed the face of the earth in many ways. Numismatics is one of them. Surprisingly so, this is an area of collecting which is still young and quite affordable. "I absolutely love the historic value of WW II numismatic material!" says White, who has been in numismatics for over two decades. In this video, White will teach you:
what economic impact war had on countries and how that is reflected in each country's coinage
what was emergency coinage
what message the Canadian victory nickel has minted around its rim in Morse code
why the famous two reich mark piece was discontinued when the war started
about occupation coins
about German access military currency
German and British counterfeit currency
PLUS a few valuable tips on Nazi medal collecting
Speaker(s): Gordon White.
