Deutscher Adler 2026 · 10 × 0.5 grams
10 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
10 coins of 0.5 grams each
It comes with a blue velvet pouch, as shown.
Legend on the eagle side: 0.5 GRAMM FEINGOLD 9999, with PERPETUA SECURITAS beside it
25 DOLLARS 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.

Why Small Gold Denominations Are So Highly Sought After
Anyone who has ever held a 1-ounce coin knows the feeling of solidity. But in an emergency, flexibility is king. This is exactly where the ten 0.5-gram coins shine: they can be individually exchanged, passed on, or gifted, without having to "touch" a larger piece of gold at once. Small, fine, handy – and thus a clever crisis protection for anyone who wants to hedge with foresight.
"Gold is the money of kings, silver is the money of gentlemen – and small gold coins are the currency of the wise provider."
The Design – A Symbol of Strength and Dignity
With wings spread wide, a sharp gaze, and a powerful pose, the eagle rises from a halo of rays that rises behind it like a golden sun. Every single feather is lovingly detailed – a richness of detail that impresses despite the small diameter of just 16.00 mm. The edge bears the motto "Einigkeit und Recht und Freiheit" (Unity and Justice and Freedom), complemented by the inscriptions "0.5 Gramm Feingold 9999" as well as the Latin phrase Perpetua Securitas – "eternal security." The idea behind this coin could hardly be put more fittingly.
Comparison with Other Smallest Gold Coins
Small gold denominations have enjoyed growing popularity for years. Compared to the Austrian classic, the Gold Vienna Philharmonic, which traditionally comes in larger ounce denominations, the German Eagle 2026 plays to its strengths through fine divisibility. While investment classics such as the Vienna Philharmonic or the Krugerrand tend to serve larger volumes, these 0.5-gram pieces are something like the "small change" for gold enthusiasts.
- Advantage over large bars: Maximum divisibility without loss of value from cutting
- Advantage over 1g pieces: Even finer denomination – ideal for targeted gifting
- Advantage over jewelry: Clearly defined fineness, Brilliant Uncirculated quality
The Velvet Pouch – More Than Just Packaging
Included in the delivery is a high-quality velvet pouch in deep royal blue (90 x 75 mm), which securely encloses the ten coins. With a fine drawstring, it becomes a small treasure chest – whether in the home safe, a bank safe deposit box, or as an extraordinary gift. The rich blue of the fabric forms a wonderful contrast to the warm yellow tone of the fine gold; a visual highlight that makes every collector's heart beat faster.

Gold possesses an intrinsic value, has never been worth zero in its more than 6,000-year history, and is considered the oldest currency in the world – qualities that are priceless in uncertain times.
