Re: Beer stein from west germany
Steins like this are quite modern, the "West Germany" marking being used until about 1989. Most of these were made for the tourist market just after World War Two when Germany was divided into East & West sectors. Values for them are quite modest in most cases , often under $30.00 at auction.
