Yes- I noticed that it is a crude mimic of the ship/sun/moon/stars jetons of the Nuremberg jetons made by Johan F. Weidinger.
Please note the "plu." and ".tra" - for some reason leaving out the S and UL. What is the I.H in the ex.?
Also- RECH F(backwards N) . PFE(backwards N)I(backwards N):
I bought this "jeton" at a coin show from a junk bin when I was a kid about 1965 because I thought it looked old and cool. Several years ago I started trying to figure out what it was. I am still trying and hoped someone here could help.
A game piece? An interesting possibility. Now- what type of game and what time period would it have been played?
I have noticed that on this board that when a query has an answer or two, nobody else chimes in with comments. Hopefully that will not happen here.
