You are reading this upside down, Sallent. The number reads clockwise, XXXIIX. It is 30 + (10-2) = 38.
Yes. The coin in question does not violate the general rule: Smaller numbers to the left are subtracted from the larger number to the right....
This isn't spectacular, but it is the best one I've ever found from any country, or rather, the only one unless some that I've considered...

Nice find! Welcome to coin talk!

Here is my poor example, bought for fifty cents from a flea market junk box. Took me years to discover it was a jeton made by Hanns Krauwinkel II...
