I count 18 shields on this one! I thought it might get snatched up in my recent selloff, when I put all my stuff up for sale, but it's still here...
Perfect look.

Great treasure hunting! Hope your lucky streak continues.
Anyway, back to the game. Since it's Germany or 1788, I'll play this "1788" gaming counter from the early 1800s, which is an imitation of a...
Yeah, I love those quirky old-style, late medieval 4s. Shaped more like one of those little cancer awareness ribbons. And their 7s were shaped...
Weird "2" on those, ain't it? I showed one to a noncollector once, and he thought it said "1994", not "1924".

Looks halfpenny-ish to me, but yes, need weight and diameter.
It is not an error. DDO? Nope. Not a bad looking 1963 cent, though. Uncirculated, or close to it. Common and not very valuable, but pretty...
