# 1033 - German Coins - Part 25

The info below comes from GODE Bayerisches Münzkontor's COA (Certificate of Authenticity) of this coin or from https://en.numista.com/ , or from https://www.wikipedia.org/.

I was rummaging through a box when I found a few German coins. As I haven't posted them yet, let's start a new series about German circulating or commemorative coins.

The twenty fifth is a 1974-F 5 Deutsche Mark "25 Jahre Grundgesetz".

This coin weights 11.2g , has a silver purity is 62.5% and has an Uncirculated finish. Its mintage was 7,750,000 units.

It commemorates the 25th Anniversary of the federal Constitutional Law.

It was minted at the Staatliche Münzen Baden-Württemberg, Stuttgart, Germany.

On the edge we see "DIE MENSCHENWÜRDE IST UNANTASTBAR" that means "Human Dignity is Invaluable".

Both sides were engraved by Hubert Albert Zimmermann.

The obverse shows an eagle, the emblem of Germany, the denomination, the country name, the date and the mintmark.

The reverse shows the symbol of the eleven states forming the country of Germany.

It is written "25 JAHRE GRUNDGESETZ DER BUNDESREPUBLIK DEUTSCHLAND" that means "25 Years of the Federal Republic of Germany".

The Federal Republic of Germany (West Germany) was formed on 23 May 1949 as a political entity during the Allied occupation of Germany after World War II, established from eleven states formed in the three Allied zones of occupation held by the United States, the United Kingdom and France. Its capital was the city of Bonn.
