Any help appreciated on this tiny coin (at least I think it is a coin). It is sized about 10-11mm & 0.2g.

The closest I could find was a 1700s Regensburg free city Heller which is a complete different design but is octagonal, uniface and I think about the same size. So that leads me to think it may be German States or from that area of Europe.


Anyone know what this is? Thank you!

Doesn't look like a coin to me. Maybe a decoration. The reverse looks like it's cheaply made, only caring about how the front looks and not durability.

Well there have been one-sided coins like the Regensburg Pfennige Brummagem mentioned, but I cannot make anything familiar out on this one.

Best regards from Berlin
