A must have. You can order one for yourself from Staatliche Münze Berlin (https://www.muenze-berlin.de/Berlin_70_Jahre_Currywurst-97244-951023.html)

Great mind think alike. But we should wait for our German member to comment -he might be a big fan of currywurst. (Over to you Ralf.)
[Personally I think a paper cone of fries in Belgium is the 'bees knees' for a snack.]

Thankfully, this is not a coin, but a medal.

Secondly, truely terrible design.

Thirdly, yes, I like a good Currywirst although I eat them only occasionally.

Currywurst sounds good to me, I would like to try it.
The coin, err medal, is butt ugly though.  :(
