The German Federal Bank has guaranteed that they would keep the exchange for Marks to Euro's open indefinitely.

Also, exchange rate is 1.9 Marks = 1 Euro.

Thank you TKD for the info on weather or not they were still taking them, someone had told us about the deadline being passed.

It all depends on the country.

It is already too late to hand in coins in Belgium, Greece, Luxembourg and Portugal, according to the European Commission's Web site.
 
The Dutch have set a Jan. 1, 2007, deadline for coins, while Italy and Finland will wait until Feb. 29, 2012.
 
The four countries with no deadlines for either notes or coins are Austria, Ireland, Germany and Spain.

I think I just crapped myself laughing.

I'm betting this means they're worth almost nothing then? If that's true, I'll gladly pay shipping plus, say, a couple bucks for some.
