I am not too sure about the details but Helvetia is definately Swiss.

The third token you show is a rememberance one from Germany, beautiful piece, with a nice history. The front side says; Zur herinnerung an d. wiederherstellung d. münsters in Ulm 1869 ( For rememberance of the renovation of the Munster (churchmaintower) at Ulm 1869 The back side is the interresting part!!; Zur feier der vollendung des Haupttúrmes am Múnster in Ulm 1890 (For the feast of the completation of the main tower from the church at Ulm 1890) Then the best part, first the left text; In der not geprägt 1923 (In time of need minted 1923) And the right side text; Aus dackkupfer d. munsters (from roofcopper of the tower)http://www.tourismus.ulm.de/sight_i...x?sight_id=4 I hope this contains the answers for your tokens my frend, with thanks to my wife with the help for translation from German to dutch and then into readable english ;-) Greetings, Carl Report this Post to the Staff
