Answer 3

Hey K1235,

if I understand you right, you posess german money from before 1948 "Deutsche Reichsmark" wait a little bit 2000 years or so possibly then it will have a worth. In the moment the value is absolutly zero.

If you have "Deutsche Mark", you can change it in Germany at each "Landesbank" or at "Deutsche Bundesbank" in Euro. Exchangerate 1.95583 DM = 1 Euro.

"Mark der DDR" Value = 0.

Answer 4

It isnt worth anything other than to a collector..

Answer 5

Depends on what it written on the coins/banknotes.

Reichsmark/Reichspfennig: collectors items only (not valid anymore since 1948)

Deutsche Mark/Pfennig: exchangable in offices of Deutsche Bundesbank/Landeszentralbank in every larg town of Germany into € (Euro).

I doubt that any US bank will change those to USD.

Answer 6

I don't think it would be worth much especially since Germany's using euros now.

Answer 7

No you can not take it to a bank for exchange any more with the use of the euro now.

Coin collectors may have interest in them depending on what kind and age they are. That is your best bet.

I still have Deutsch Marks and even DDR Marks saved as mommento's.
