Question
Interested in learning the value of a 1926 A Reichspfennig. Coin has wheat design on front. Obverse side has Deutsches Reich, a 5 inside a square and Reichspfennig.

Answer
Hi Cheryl, There were 14.4 million of these aluminum-bronze 5 pfennig coins minted that year in Berlin (A). Collector value may be worth about .15 with heavy wear to around $2 with moderate wear to maybe $10 with light wear.
You might also try a library for a copy of the Standard Catalog of World Coins for pictures, values and lots more interesting info.
