Juancho New Member United States 1 Posts	Posted 04/21/2013 12:18 am Hi, I just got a set of three coins, medals or tokens (not sure) from Celle, Germany and will like information if anyone can help. It has a #1000 in front of the coat of arms which I guess is the purity of the metal, but what kind? P.S. On the picture looks like golden color, but in reality looks more like silver, thanks.

wjl Valued Member United States 329 Posts	Posted 04/21/2013 12:35 am It appears to be a token or medal from Celle arms on one side and the rathaus on the other which houses the local gov't council. Celle is in North Central Germany. #1000 could be the mintage. Purity in coins is expressed at a max of .9999 Edited by wjl 04/21/2013 12:40 am Report this Post to the Staff

chrisild Pillar of the Community Germany 1238 Posts	Posted 04/29/2013 4:52 pm Celle is a city in the German state of Lower Saxony. Cannot say anything about the medal, but it will be from before 1999. That is when the new city hall was opened, and I suppose that a medal made later would say "Altes Rathaus" (Old City Hall) instead of just "Rathaus". :) Christian Report this Post to the Staff
