GERMANY. Weimar Republic. AR 3 Mark (30mm, 15.09 g, 12h).Munich mint. Dated 1931. Eagle displayed facing, head left; date below / Denomination and mint mark in wreath. KM 74. EF, lightly cleaned, very scarce.

Regardless of the comparatively high mintages in this series (this date and mint alone has a reported mintage of 2,232,000), the issue is very scarce, because almost none were saved. Even as a type (total mintage over 27,000,000) it is much scarcer than most of the Weimar commemoratives.
