Yeah, I also think that is 4 pfennig or 4 heller german coin. But which State ? There's an emblem with the cross.

The Brandenburg-Ansbach arms are just the arms of the Hohenzollern family, who ruled it. The Hohenzollerns also ruled Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen: the description of this four-pfennig sounds close, but I can't find a picture.

It also looks like the Brandenburg-Bayreuth arms:

If you look at the second picture carefully, the upper left and lower right quadrants of the arms have diagonal (NW-SE) rulings. None of the links above look like that to me.

I also wonder if the second picture should be rotated 90 degrees counter-clockwise?

Maybe that will help someone who knows about these German states.
