for Martin Luther's 500th birthday. In addition,<br />

there are GDR commemorative coins entitled<br />

"Wartburg", "Wittenberg Castle Church" and<br />

"Luther's Birthplace in Eisleben" from 1982/1983<br />

as well as the German 100 euro gold coin from<br />

2011 featuring an image of the UNESCO World<br />

Heritage Site of Wartburg. One should not<br />

forg et the numismatic tributes to<br />

Luther-follower Thomas Muentzer from 1989 in<br />

the GDR and his friend Philipp Melanchthon as<br />

a reformer in 1997 in the Federal Republic, as<br />

well as the birthday coin of Lucas Cranach the<br />

Elder, who painted Luther's portrait in 1972 in<br />

the GDR. On a related note it is worth<br />

mentioning a new release from Switzerland, as<br />

the great anniversary of the<br />

Reformation was also<br />

honoured there with a<br />

20 franc silver coin which<br />

features portraits of Calvin<br />

and Zwingli.<br />

There is also a wide variety<br />

of historic silver thalers and gold ducats from<br />

the Reformation anniversary years of 1617,<br />

1717, 1817 and 1917, which are purchased at<br />

coin auctions by our Numismatic Department<br />

as valuable individual pieces. These are then<br />

offered to selected premium customers as an<br />

upselling option via mail order telemarketing.<br />

From all of these commemorative coins we<br />

develop customised products which take into<br />

Offers<br />

that inspire coin<br />

collectors.<br />

account the face value and the metal as well as<br />

different price categories. We create a coherent<br />

offer concept with the product details and<br />

selling points, so that the potential customer<br />

can quickly recognise the attractiveness of<br />

the offer. It automatically includes the<br />

corresponding packaging, such as a highquality<br />

collector's case made of wood, a product<br />

brochure with numismatic details and<br />

background information on the topic. High-end<br />

gold sets are accompanied by books on the<br />

same topic, so that the collector can delve<br />

deeper into the product. As a result, with each<br />

new set of coins we develop a desirable product<br />

based on an interesting theme that captures the<br />

attention of the public and<br />

that many coin collectors<br />

will find hard to resist.<br />

In the B-to-B sector we are<br />

happy to present our concepts<br />

personally to the relevant<br />

product managers. If required<br />

we will provide background information,<br />

photos and our own advertising material as a<br />

template.<br />

On a European level, coins of the British royal<br />

family are popular collection themes. Queen<br />

Elizabeth II celebrated her 90th birthday in<br />

2016. 2017 was her 65th coronation<br />

anniversary and her 70th wedding anniversary<br />

with Prince Philip. In addition, 2017 marked the<br />

centenary of the Royal House of Windsor and<br />

modern gold Sovereigns turned 200 years old.<br />

This opened up a wide range of opportunities<br />

to combine the Royal Mint's new issues with<br />

the older historical silver and gold coins of<br />

George III, George IV, William IV, Victoria,<br />

Edward VII, George V, George VI and<br />

Elizabeth II.<br />

In Great Britain, as the head of state, the Queen<br />

adorns the obverse of coins with her portrait<br />

and insignia. Due to her long reign, six<br />

different portraits of the monarch have been<br />

issued so far, which gracefully depict her in<br />

different periods starting from 1957<br />

until today. This is the basis for compiling<br />

interesting coin sets including high-quality,<br />

informative accessories, which trace the life of<br />

the queen and her history in a European context<br />

over 60 years. Again, the procedure is similar<br />

and includes comprehensive offer management<br />

of the product concept, features, positioning,<br />

calculation and procurement as well as<br />

marketing in the respective sales channels. n<br />

the Sovereign": The British<br />
