Deutscher Adler 2026
500 coins.Turn one over, and you read a song.
The eagle side bears EINIGKEIT UND RECHT UND FREIHEIT (unity and justice and freedom), the Germania side FÜR DAS DEUTSCHE VATERLAND (for the German fatherland). Together they are the first two lines of the German national anthem.
Eagle side: an eagle in flight against rays, around it EINIGKEIT UND RECHT UND FREIHEIT, the weight and the fineness
Heligoland, 26 August 1841
“Nothing but sky and sea”
In 1841, Germany was divided into almost 40 separate states. On Heligoland, then British, August Heinrich Hoffmann von Fallersleben walked alone on the cliff and wrote the “Song of the Germans”.
For the melody he chose Joseph Haydn’s 1797 setting of “Gott erhalte Franz den Kaiser” (God save Emperor Francis). Instead of God and emperor, the song was now about a united, free Germany.
He offered the song to his publisher Julius Campe for four louis d’or, that is, for four gold coins. Campe paid before it had even been recited to the end.
Einigkeit und Recht und Freiheit
für das deutsche Vaterland!
Hoffmann von Fallersleben, “Song of the Germans”, third verse: “Unity and justice and freedom for the German fatherland!”
In 1952 Federal President Theodor Heuss and Federal Chancellor Konrad Adenauer agreed that the third verse would be sung on official occasions. Of the poet, Heuss wrote: “Hoffmann von Fallersleben was a man of black, red and gold.”
In 1991, after reunification, Federal President Richard von Weizsäcker declared the third verse the national anthem in an exchange of letters with Federal Chancellor Helmut Kohl. Kohl called “Einigkeit und Recht und Freiheit” a “triad”.
The same words appear on the edge of the German 2 euro coin.
Colours for unity and freedom
Where black, red and gold come from is not clearly documented. After 1815 they were traced back to the black uniforms with red piping and gold-coloured buttons of the Lützow Free Corps of 1813.
1832Hambach
Between 20,000 and 30,000 people came to the Hambach Festival, the largest political gathering in Germany up to that time. In the procession, a black, red and gold flag was carried, bearing the words “Deutschlands Wiedergeburt” (Germany’s rebirth).
1848Frankfurt
On 9 March the Federal Diet of the German Confederation in Frankfurt made black, red and gold the colours of the Confederation.
1949Basic Law
With one vote against, the Parliamentary Council chose the colours of the movement for unity and freedom. Article 22 of the Basic Law: “The federal flag shall be black, red and gold.”
The Germania side
Germania with helmet, spear and oak leaves
In 1848, a Germania almost five metres high, attributed to Philipp Veit and his workshop, hung above the speaker’s rostrum of the first German National Assembly in St Paul’s Church in Frankfurt.
She wears a wreath of oak leaves and holds a lance with the black, red and gold banner, while the sun rises behind her. Today the painting is in the Germanisches Nationalmuseum in Nuremberg.
The oak leaves, spear and rays on the coin recall this painting.
The 1 DM coin also bore two oak leaves, and today an oak twig appears on the German 1, 2 and 5 cent coins.
The eagle side
The eagle in flight
It spreads its wings wide and stretches its talons forward, while rays run out behind it from the centre of the coin. The plumage is worked down to each individual feather.
As a heraldic animal, the eagle goes back to the beginnings of the Holy Roman Empire; since 1950 the federal coat of arms has shown it in black on a golden-yellow ground. The eagle on this coin is freely designed, in flight rather than within a shield.
The coin in detail
500 coins of 1/20 ounce each
The bundle comes with ten blue velvet pouches, each for about 50 coins.
Legend on the eagle side: 1/20 UNZE FEINSILBER 9999, with PERPETUA SECURITAS beside it
ONE DOLLAR on the robe, REPUBLIC OF LIBERIA along the stem of the oak wreath
Kettner Edelmetalle describes the Deutscher Adler as a privately minted series with a foreign face value.
With its words in reverse order, the formula PERPETUA SECURITAS already appeared on Roman coins.
“For a country open to the world and widely respected.”
That is what black, red and gold stand for today, according to the Bundestag.

500 x 1/20 oz Silver German Eagle 2026 – Small Silver in a Bulk Package
Five hundred eagles, five hundred times fine silver: this bundle brings together 500 pieces of the 1/20 oz Silver German Eagle 2026 in a single purchase – a total of 777.59 g fine weight at a gross weight of 777.59 g. Each coin has a fineness of 999.9/1,000, is struck in Brilliant Uncirculated (BU) quality and comes in a protective coin capsule. Anyone who wants to build up a stock of small silver not piece by piece, but in quantity right away, will find exactly what they need here.
The Eagle Rising into the Sky
The obverse shows an eagle with widely spread wings in front of a finely engraved sunburst. Despite the compact surface area of only 16.50 mm in diameter, every feather is clearly worked out. Running around the edge is the motto “Einigkeit und Recht und Freiheit” (Unity and Justice and Freedom), complemented by the field inscription PERPETUA SECURITAS and the designation 1/20 oz fine silver 9999. The reverse presents a fully armored Germania with a lance, oak leaves and an eagle helmet – along with the inscription “Für das Deutsche Vaterland” (For the German Fatherland) and the year 2026. The face value of 1 Dollar is issued by Liberia, while the series is designed and issued by Kettner Edelmetalle in Germany.
Small denominations are not a compromise, but a strategy: those who stock up divisibly remain flexible – even when only a small amount is needed.

Why 500 Small Coins Instead of Fewer Large Ones?
A 1 oz silver coin such as the Maple Leaf or the Silver Eagle scores with a low premium per gram. But it cannot be divided. This is exactly where the strength of this package lies: 777.59 g of silver, distributed across 500 individually capsuled units. This results in a fine granularity that matters in everyday life – when giving gifts, when selectively parting with individual pieces, or as a means of exchange in smaller transactions. In our silver coins category you will find both worlds; this bundle deliberately serves the small-denomination one.
Practically thought through: the ten included velvet pouches in petrol blue each hold a partial quantity. This allows the stock to be sensibly portioned – for example, 50 coins per pouch – and stored ready at hand, dust-free and discreetly.
Silver: Industrial Metal and Monetary Metal in One
For thousands of years, silver has been used by the most diverse cultures as a coinage metal, means of payment and symbol of wealth. Unlike fiat money, whose purchasing power depends on trust in governments, silver possesses an intrinsic value derived from its physical properties: highest electrical conductivity, durability, longevity. This is why it is in constant demand in electronics, photovoltaics and medical technology, while the extractable supply naturally remains limited. As a globally traded commodity, silver is liquid at all times.
For Investors, Collectors and the Generations to Come
- Crisis and inflation hedge: Physical silver sits outside the banking system and retains its material value when currencies come under pressure.
- Tax aspect: Profits from the sale of silver are generally tax-free, provided the holding period of at least one year is observed.
- Retirement provision and wealth transfer: Small units can be easily divided and passed on across generations.
- Collector's value: The “Birds” series featuring the German Eagle forms a thematically closed set and, in this denomination, makes for an appealing small format.
Whether as a foundation, as a supplement to an existing precious metals holding, or as a stock for gifts: these 500 Brilliant Uncirculated silver eagles combine design quality with maximum divisibility – delivered as new goods via insured shipping. Gold is considered humanity's oldest currency; silver has accompanied it for just as long as the monetary metal of everyday use. Secure this package while stocks of the 2026 year of issue last.
