Some more or less useful hints: The japanese coin was once used in Japan. The two towns are both located at rivers in Germany. The three gentlemen hails from Finland. As usual, Please don't publish your solution until Sunday. We don't want to spoil the fun for the others. General comments or PMs always welcome. If online I'll confirm. Enjoy the solving.

I've always enjoyed learning how geographical names change from country to country, sort of like a game of telephone. Thanks for another fun puzzle, Fogfighter! A little too much chocolate is just about right.
