Key Collector Specifications
• Mint Mark: The small "A" on the obverse (the side with the state emblem), which denotes the Berlin Mint.
• Design: The reverse features a distinctive three-quarter portrait of Einstein, designed by Heinz Rodewald and Wilfried Fitzenreiter.
• Weight & Size: It weighs 12.2 grams and has a diameter of 29 mm (larger than a US quarter but slightly smaller than a Half Dollar).
Why the Price Varies
• Comparison to FRG (West Germany): Don't confuse this with the West German (FRG) 1979 5 Mark Einstein coin. The West German version had a mintage of over 5 million and is generally only worth about $5–$10 in circulated condition. The East German (DDR) version is much rarer and more valuable.
