Now I am thinking maybe a transit token since the only German reference I can find to V.G.F. is the German transportation system? The reverse is identical. Report this Post to the Staff

jdmern Pillar of the Community United States 1949 Posts	Posted 10/30/2015 4:27 pm I believe it is actually a cafeteria/food token... The Menzel reference has this piece listed in the back of the books, Menzel#33422... It lists the value at 8 Euros Boardwalk Numismatics http://stores.ebay.com/jdmern/ https://boardwalknumismatics.com Report this Post to the Staff

Dcnw1983 Valued Member United States 264 Posts	Posted 10/30/2015 6:20 pm jdmern - I cannot find an link to the Menzel material. Does it mention a date for the token? Report this Post to the Staff
jdmern Pillar of the Community United States 1949 Posts	Posted 10/30/2015 8:32 pm No date listed... The Menzel books are 2 volumes German language, I had to order my copy from Germany and are rather expensive, but are a fantastic work, especially for rather obscure pieces like this, as well as the private issues Boardwalk Numismatics http://stores.ebay.com/jdmern/ https://boardwalknumismatics.com Report this Post to the Staff
