Where the Germans have ways to get foreign coins (5)
I believe the answer is:
essen
'where the germans' is the definition.
The answer is a location as well as being a singular noun. This is suggested by the definition.
'ways to get foreign coins' is the wordplay.
'ways' becomes 'es' (east and south - two directions).
'to get' says to put letters next to each other.
'foreign coins' becomes 'sen' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'es'+'sen'='ESSEN'
'have' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for essen that I've seen before include "Main industrial city of the Ruhr" , "German industrial city on the Ruhr" , "city in the Ruhr valley" , "German place name" , "European city" .)
