Deutsche Mark
editThe "source"[1] for the Deutsche Mark claim is actually a copy of wikipedia and theirfore is not a valid source here. All said and done I think it is more likely that the Irish, like the British, saw the rising cost of metal and the outlandish size of the coin and decided to reduce the size.
Anything to the effect that the German government pressurised the Irish would require appropriate citation. Djegan 12:26, 8 October 2006 (UTC)
- Agreed. Although the old 5p was the same size as 1DM (probably a reflection of the pre-WW1 exchange rate of 20 marks to the £) I can't see the German government pressurising either of the governments about it - they'd have been living with wildly different values since at least the 1960s. -- Arwel (talk) 16:20, 8 October 2006 (UTC)
