Token Hans Krauwinckel Nürnberg

4 posts • viewed 52 times

Dear all, 

 

I recently got hold of a Nürnberg token by Hans Krauwinckel. Numerous of these tokens are described in the catalogus, alle with their specific legend. A lot of them have a similar design, but I cannot find this specific design. There is a lot 'just like it, but always some detail is different (the legend, the dots, etc…).

 

Could somebody identify this token ?

 

diameter 25 mm

weight 1,49

composition : probably brass

quality is unfortunately not good ( counterfeit ? )

Good afternoon,

 

Please post your request here for tokens: https://en.numista.com/forum/forum35.html

Kind Regards

Thanks, but this is the list I originally used to identify the token and did not find it.

I’ll repost it in the token section, my fault.

 

Cheers, Clement 

A counterfeit Nuremberg token sounds odd :)

May be a degenerated item : on obverse the christian name looks with two “A” and the reverse legend is not as these following usual legends :
