Here we have a Prussian coin weight for the Louis D'or gold coin dated 1768 during the reign of Frederick the Great who we all know was a no nonsense kind of guy. Since this brass weight has his monogram and the Prussian crown, eagle and war trophies design on it, could it be an official Prussian mint product?

Looks like it - very professionally made.

And also - apparently worth a bit! Looks like there are some variations in the text.
