Imasnore Valued Member Canada 360 Posts	Posted 02/22/2013 5:08 pm Can any member help me with this token? It is 28 mm, thick 3 mm, non magnetic, plain edge. I believe it is German as I can read only parts of it. "Weiterspiel Marke" basically continue on marker..."N" with Eagle on both sides. Game or vintage (year); unit is so large & thick I am trying determine if it had a denomination? Edited by Imasnore 02/22/2013 5:55 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Imasnore Valued Member Canada 360 Posts	Posted 02/22/2013 8:58 pm "The third piece says "Weiterspiel-Marke", I think. That would refer to continuing a game." Larger, thicker metal token with one side N and other different may have some significance but as it is older and German it is unknown to me, however, I appreciate the comments, Links and viewing this token:) Report this Post to the Staff
Imasnore Valued Member Canada 360 Posts	Posted 02/22/2013 9:23 pm In many European countries, it is not allowed to pay winnings from gaming machines. Therefore, the winnings are paid in tokens that effectively give you a free game on the same or a similar machine, thus Weiterspiel -Marke: token to continue playing. taken from: http://www.worldofcoins.eu/forum/in...opic=15441.0 The style looks like a Eurocoin token. Eurocoin is a UK company making tokens and machines that accept them. This one looks like a gaming token. from same above website, on German Tokens. Report this Post to the Staff
