wwhitman Pillar of the Community United States 1415 Posts	Posted 06/18/2008 10:30 pm I have searched and could not find any information on the attached token It's about 20 mm in diameter and appears to be made of silver. The text on the token is: GERMAN -> English Translation OBV - drittes reformat fest -> Notes third reformat Rev - eine feste burg ist unser gott -> a fixed burg is our god Which makes no sense to me. THANX in advance for any info Image: German_Token_Obv.jpg 76.84 KB Image: German_Token_Rev.jpg 95 KB Report this Post to the Staff

Sap Moderator Australia 17043 Posts	Posted 06/18/2008 11:28 pm The reverse text is from a German hymn by Martin Luther. Given the connection with Luther, presumably "reformat" is related to the "Reformation". So presumably, in 1817 there was a religious event called the Third Reformation (or perhaps the Third Reformed Church?) Festival (conclave? conference? gathering?) in the city of Darmstadt. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff
