Reichskreditkassenmünzen are coins issued by the Reichskreditkassen founded in 1940 for use in the areas occupied by the German Reich during the Second World War . Zinc coins worth 5 and 10 Reichspfennigen were minted . The pennies had a hole in the middle (" hole money ").

The Reich treasury coins were minted in 1940 by all mints in the Reich, in 1941 only in the forms A and F. Many Reich treasury coins were melted down again before they were issued. Reich treasury coins (A) from the Berlin mint alone are not considered rare.
