mrwhatisit Pillar of the Community United States 2828 Posts	Posted 01/01/2024 9:41 pm Got this several months ago for very cheap in a plastic binder with notgeld's from Aachen, Germany from whatnot... Has the German artist Alfred Rethel, 1816-1859, and as mentioned in the title, is a simple uniface with a toothed border. Robert Lamb's 1966 book titled "Catalog of German War Tokens" does not even mention this one. Perhaps this is a trial strike of an un-struck denomination, making this a very rare item indeed. Size: 30mm Weight: about 9.09g Better indicate this is not found on Numista... May have to get the reverse photo tomorrow. Edited by mrwhatisit 01/01/2024 9:42 pm Report this Post to the Staff

mrwhatisit Pillar of the Community United States 2828 Posts	Posted 01/01/2024 10:55 pm I agree with numista here, as that coin is at 24mm, mine is at 30mm, so that can't be it, although made of the same material I believe I'm beginning to suspect this is an un-struck 5 mark denomination?
