The article claims: "Officially it was known as the Mark der DDR". Is this really true? I thought this was the name used in the west, whereas the official name was MDN (Mark der deutschen Notenbank). This is just my recollection from when a I made term paper on the Berlin crisis back in the mid sixties, so details might be wrong, but the currency name has certainly been used.
I would like to know whether which usage is more correct: "East German Mark" or "East German mark". The latter would be standard English grammar, but the former would mix German grammar with English - especially given that unlike the relatively simple "Deutsche Mark" or "German mark", the most well-known official name of the East German currency was "Mark der DDR" or, "mark of the GDR".

These two denominations were printed but were never put into circulation. They were not rarely but never used. I suppose to remove them from the currency info box. Timur lenk 08:02, 21 November 2006 (UTC)
