Comments

Jest to pierwsza srebrna moneta okolicznościowa Republiki Federalnej Niemiec o nominale 10DM.

Moneta została omyłkowo zaprojektowana i wydana z napisem "XX Igrzyska Olimpijskie W NIEMCZECH", ale igrzyska olimpijskie są zawsze przypisane do miast, a nie krajów. Krajowy Komitet Olimpijski Niemieckiej Republiki Demokratycznej złożył skargę, a nowa moneta z napisem zmienionym na "IN MUNICH" została ponownie wyemitowana z tymi samymi numerami nakładu (poniżej w sekcji "Zobacz także")

Niemiecka Republika Demokratyczna zakazała również importu monet z napisem "IN GERMANY".

Z około 1 miliarda DM obrotu z emisji 100 milionów monet z 5 (+1 poprawionych) motywów w serii, ponad 600 milionów DM pozostało po odliczeniu kosztów i zostało wykorzystane do sfinansowania budowy budynków w Parku Olimpijskim w Monachium.

This is an automatic translation. The original text is:

This is the first silver commemorative coin of the Federal Republic of Germany with a face value of 10DM.

The coin was mistakenly designed and issued with the inscription '20th Olympic Games IN GERMANY', but Olympic Games are always attributed to cities and not countries. The national Olympic committee of the German Democratic Republic complained, and a new coin with the inscription changed to 'IN MUNICH' was issued with the same mintage numbers again (below under 'See also')

The German Democratic Republic also banned the coin with the 'IN GERMANY' inscription from import.

Of the roughly 1 billion DM turnover from the issuance of 100 million coins across the 5 (+1 corrected) motives in the series, more than 600 million DM remained after deduction of costs and were used to finance the construction of buildings in the Olympic Park in Munich.
