It's very thin and around 26mm wide Looks like it has an alphabet on the rear with missing letters. Any help would be great & Report this Post to the Staff

The inscriptions read: HANNS KRAV-WINCKEL IN NVR (Hans Krauwinkel in Nuremberg) FLEISIGE RECHNVNG MACHT RICHTIKEI[T] (Diligent accounting makes for correctness) Hans Krauwinkel (and his son with the same name) made several tokens, this is just one of many. A search for "krauwinkel rechenpfennig" shows more of them. Here is some info about the Krauwinkels and their tokens: https://en.numista.com/catalogue/ex...ia42705.html Report this Post to the Staff
