These are called wagon wheel cancels, or Mühlradstempel in German. The numbers correspond to the post office applying the cancel.

You can find a bit more information here:

Some Bavaria specialists collect these postmarks and try to collect all the different numbers. The stamps themselves are easy enough to find, but assembling a complete postmark collection can be quite the challenge.

Here is the number page from my old Michel German special catalog ...
The surcharge for each number is in DM - but there shouldn's have changed so much in this collection area. So I think you can take half of it and get the Euros.

There are "Mühlrad" cancellations in red and blue as well by the way!

I think the German name makes more sense, Mühlrad = millwheel, given that many of them like these two have no outside circle.

Prussia had postmarks that consisted of four concentric circles with a number in the centre, "Vierringstempel".
