    Hello CoinTalkers! I bought the pictured coin from a dealer's junk bin at a coin show. It measures about 23mm in diameter and I can read the partial words "REICHISCHE" and RIDEMUNZE" on the coin. The reverse is completely obliterated. I have spent several hours trying to identify it to no avail. Please help me! 2013-09-13_18-11-02_173.jpg 2013-09-13_18-11-02_173.jpg 2013-09-13_18-11-02_173.jpg

    It might be an amusement park token, but I'll see if I can find out more looking specifically at Germanic coins.

    Thanks for the help, guys! rdwarrior, do you have any more information you can tell me about the coin (e.g. denomination, composition)? Again, thanks.

    Wouldn't Austria say Österreich?

    Maybe it was on the reverse?

    Thanks for the help! I've done some more investigating on the Internet and I've discovered that it's an Austrian 1 kreuzer coin.
