That is a Bavarian beer token. Nice piece, and pretty well preserved! It was issued by the Seefeld brewery, today in the town of Hechendorf. There are different versions; as you see from the links below, some have little rings at the top ... http://www.coretech.cc/CT3/media/51/lots/1383.pdf (auction catalog, see item #1897 on p. 80) http://www.ma-shops.de/diller/item.php5?id=130813006 (silver plated, but the design is pretty much the same) https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hechendorf_am_Pilsensee (German Wikipedia page about the town) And sorry, I'm basically clueless when it comes to this token. I just know how to "feed" a search engine with German terms. Christian
That is awesome! Thank you so much! I've had this for a while and picked and up and searched - hit a dead end -and then put it down again so many times. I really appreciate your help!
