Here is one that I found online with pics and a description http://www.rarecoincollector.net/in...ucts_id=6200. Check and see if the one that you have has the same diameter (44.5 mm) and weight (31.1 grams). It could be a replica, since there are a lot of fakes out there. Hope this helps.

Chris269 New Member Philippines 11 Posts	Posted 09/10/2011 09:20 am Hi, this is an authentic Notgeld/Medall from the Westfalen Series 1923. This token is quite rare compare to other tokens from the same series. The token/medal looks genuine if I compare it with other genuine (same) tokens/medals Report this Post to the Staff
DL20K Pillar of the Community Poland 3201 Posts	Posted 09/10/2011 3:58 pm With a mintage of 9985 it has the 3rd lowest mintage of the series. And the whole series consists of 20* coins (I say coins because all of them have a denomination - from "50 pf." to "1 Billion Mk.") plus this medal. * more if varieties are included.
