German states before and during the 2nd Reich

This is a collection of the German states coins before the foundation of the Second Reich (end of 18th century). The most interesting thing in collecting these coins is to follow the marriage alliances between the royal houses inside the Germany which changed the borders of the states after every marriage and, as a result, the names of the states...

This is only the beginning of this collection and it will keep on growing in the future...
