Nurnberg - 1st German Railroad, 1921

Nurnberg - 1st German Railroad, 1921

This is a special issue commemorative (1 of 3) of Nuremberg Germany. It recognizes the famous and first German steam train that ran from Nuremberg to Furth in 1835. This 150 pfennig piece shows the Kunstbrunnen which appears to be a generic tern for 'artistic fountain' when in fact this is a Commemorative Fountain, dedicated to the 1st German Passenger Rail line, in Nurnberg. See all three coins in this series.
