Eagle side
The eagle in flight.Against a ring of rays.
A freely designed eagle: it spreads its wings wide and stretches its talons forward. Around it runs the legend EINIGKEIT UND RECHT UND FREIHEIT.
The other side
Germania.With helmet, spear and oak leaves.
Germania in profile: on her helmet an eagle spreads its wings, her hair and cloak flow. In her arm she holds a wreath of oak leaves, the spear stands beside her. The face value ONE DOLLAR appears in small letters on her robe, REPUBLIC OF LIBERIA on the stem of the wreath, and the year 2026 at the bottom.

The song
Two sides.Two lines.
Together, the legends of the two sides are the first two lines of the German national anthem, the third verse of the “Song of the Germans”: “Unity and justice and freedom for the German fatherland!”
August Heinrich Hoffmann von Fallersleben wrote it on 26 August 1841 on Heligoland. He walked alone on the cliff and, as he later recalled, saw “nothing but sea and sky” around him.
The Deutscher Adler 2026 is a privately minted series with a foreign face value and not an issue of the Federal Republic of Germany. It bears the two lines as a homage.
Size comparison
One design.Three silver sizes side by side.
Each coin shown true to scale. For comparison: a 1‑euro‑cent coin measures 16.25 millimetres, a 2‑euro coin 25.75.
A twentieth of an ounce.Two lines that last.
An eagle in flight, Germania with helmet and spear, and two lines every German knows. Struck in 2026, they earn a place in your collection.
1/20 oz Silver German Eagle 2026 – Pride in Pure Fine Silver
Small, yet with tremendous symbolic power: The 1/20 oz Silver German Eagle 2026 from Kettner Edelmetalle combines German tradition, the highest minting craftsmanship, and the timeless value of silver in an impressively compact format. With a diameter of just 16.50 mm, this coin may sit delicately in your hand – yet what it offers in detail and expressive power is in no way inferior to its larger siblings.
A Masterpiece of Minting Art – Two Sides, One Story
The design side of this coin shows a majestic eagle with widely spread wings, rising powerfully into the sky. Every single feather is worked out with breathtaking precision. The design is framed by the words "Einigkeit und Recht und Freiheit" ("Unity and Justice and Freedom") – the founding pillars of the German national anthem. At the bottom edge is the inscription 1/20 oz Fine Silver 9999, which unmistakably documents the high degree of purity.
The value side surprises with an equally artistic depiction: a proud Germania in full armor, adorned with oak leaves and an eagle on her helmet, resolutely holding a spear. The inscription "Für das Deutsche Vaterland" ("For the German Fatherland") and the year 2026 complete this impressive image. Rarely has such detailed engraving been seen on a coin of this size.
Unity and Justice and Freedom – these words not only adorn the coin, but also stand for the values that physical precious metal embodies: independence, stability, and security.

Why 1/20 oz in Particular?
Not everyone wants – or needs – to purchase a full ounce right away. The 1/20 oz denomination is the perfect entry point into the world of silver coins. It is excellently suited as a gift, as a collector's item, or as a clever building block for gradually building up a physical precious metals holding. Especially in times of economic uncertainty, it can make sense to also own smaller units – after all, silver has historically proven itself as a medium of exchange in smaller transactions.
Compared to larger bars or 1 oz coins, the small denomination offers a decisive advantage: maximum flexibility. You can build up your holdings piece by piece without having to invest large sums at once. At the same time, you benefit from the high liquidity that silver enjoys worldwide.
Silver as a Timeless Store of Value
Silver looks back on a thousand-year history as a coinage metal and medium of trade. A wide variety of cultures and civilizations have valued it as a symbol of wealth and prestige. Yet the value of silver is by no means only historically grounded. Industrial demand – from electronics to solar technology to medical technology – is steadily growing. The limited supply combined with rising demand speaks a clear language.
Anyone who holds silver for at least one year can also realize profits from its sale tax-free – an advantage that should not be underestimated compared to many other forms of investment.
Inflation hedge and crisis protection in Miniature Format
While paper currencies come and go, silver retains its intrinsic value. Unlike fiat money, which is based solely on trust in governments, silver possesses intrinsic value through its physical properties and industrial applications. Especially in politically and economically turbulent times, physical precious metal has repeatedly proven itself as a reliable anchor.
