Germania Allegories ANA Chicago Worlds Fair of Money

[Chicagodogs]

Just received these. They're were only 500 made with a placard and COA at the Chicago ANA Worlds Fair. I have the Oak Leaf too. Did they make any 5 Mark rounds with a COA? Did Europe have something similar? In the states I only see the 5 Mark Allegories in capsules with no COA. Took a gamble that Germania Mint would bring their best looking rounds in a placard and COA to the show. Do you think they'll have more of a collector premium than the capsules?

Yes. The medaillons come with COA, but without numbers

I found the ones I have are going for $75-$100 on Ebay.

What will a fair price for one of these be, if I attend to buy one?

I noticed they sell quickly when put on Ebay. If you can get them for $75, seems fair with only 500 packed that way.

You can buy the 2 oz Allegories near at the same price. They come with a mintage of only  2.500 Peaces and I think they have a similar package.  https://germaniamint.com/de/britannia-germania-2-oz-2/ Next week I will get the 2oz Germania & Britannia. Maybe I can post a picture soon  There ist the picture of the package on the webside of germania mint

The packaging of the 2oz is very appealing!
