    My dad received this Nicolay export hanau beer mug in Germany from someone that lived there back in 1967. I have been trying to find a value for this mug or even more about the mug. My dad thinks it is very old. I have not been able to find another one like it. IMG_3997.JPG

    There were some other designs on Worthpoint.
    Some here have memberships.
    There's an ashtray too.

    So the mug is pre-1975. Are there any marks on the bottom?

    I do still have this mug. I am not willing to sell it. My father brought it home with him from Germany in 1967. It was given to him from a lady from Germany.

    I have his brother, actually I have two of them, plus several hundred other mugs and glasses from this Brewery, also other stuff like beercoasters, ashtrays, barrels, signs, bottles, labels, furniture, workwear... . I was born in Hanau, live nearby and collect everything from this brewery for 31 years now. Please let me know, if You want to part with it someday. I had to pay for similar mugs of this type on ebay Germany 139 Euro in 2016 and 277 Euro in 2014. I would offer You 300 Euro due to the nice condition and the story of a GI taking this with him. I also collect US Army uniforms and accoutrements from the 1950s to early 1970s and so Your mug is interesting for me in two ways. The mug that is offered on German ebay for 111 Euro and which is discussed earlier in this thread has a ridiculous price. It does not sell for month, since this is worth not more than 25 Euro. Kind regards.[​IMG]

    Thank you for the response. I just spoke with my father and at this point he does not want to part with the mug. More sentimental attachment to it. If things change I will contact you. He wanted to thank you for the information.
