A Diva in Gold – a design that captivates with character

Marlene Dietrich. Even the name alone evokes tuxedos, a smoky voice and a charisma that enchanted entire generations. Born in 1901 in Berlin-Schöneberg, she conquered Hollywood, broke with conventions and became the first German world celebrity in film history. It is precisely this special glamour that is captured on this coin – a portrait of the icon that, in the high-quality Proof finish, becomes a true miniature work of art. Mirror-like backgrounds, frosted reliefs, the finest contours: anyone who has ever held a Proof coin in their hands knows why connoisseurs swear by them.

"The most golden thing about gold is not its shine – but the stories it preserves."

Why this small coin is so significant

At first glance, one might think: only 0.5 grams? But that is precisely where the appeal lies. The coin has a diameter of just 11.00 mm – it fits in any hand, any collection, any display case. Yet it carries a weighty legacy: 999.9/1,000 purest fine gold, which has been regarded as a safe store of value for thousands of years. Gold – as collectors have known for generations – has never had a value of zero. It is the world's oldest currency and has outlasted all paper currencies, empires and political systems.

Collector's heart, what more could you want?

With a mintage of only 5,000 pieces worldwide, this issue seamlessly joins the ranks of the most sought-after modern gold coins. Collectors know: the lower the mintage, the greater the desirability. And Marlene Dietrich is no ordinary design – she is cultural history. Her 125th birthday in 2026 makes this issue doubly appealing: for film enthusiasts, for lovers of German history and for all those who appreciate high-quality minting art.
