This type of 1935-36 marked the death of president Hindenburg. It was replaced in 1936-39 by KM 94, which had a swastika on the reverse. Though the size of a half dollar, its higher fineness meant that it contained the same amount of silver as the larger five mark of the Weimar Republic such as the Goethe commemorative ([[Germany 1932-D 5 mark Dav-974|Dav-974]]). This type was also minted at Berlin ("A"), Vienna ("B"), Munich ("D"), Muldenhutten ("E"), Freudenstadt ("G"), and Hamburg ("J").

This type of 1935-36 marked the death of president Hindenburg. It was replaced in 1936-39 by KM 94, which had a swastika on the reverse. Though the size of a half dollar, its higher fineness meant that it contained the same amount of silver as the larger five mark of the Weimar Republic such as the Goethe commemorative (Dav-974). This type was also minted at Berlin ("A"), Vienna ("B"), Munich ("D"), Muldenhutten ("E"), Karlsruhe ("G"), and Hamburg ("J").
