    Hello
    I am new to this forum and was surprised to find that a forum like this actually exists. I have been collecting for quite a while now, most of my life actually. I should be able to help someone here.

    I do have a question to ask about these two zinc coins I have, they say reichenberg KGL in center large letters with a dome shaped wreath over on obv and the denomination on rev. One is 15mm 1 heller the other is a 20mm 10 heller. They look Austrian but could be Bavarian, right? Thinking WW2 era, zinc. Very thin and have plain edge. Dotted along outer diameter the entire way. Great condition. I do have notes that are 20 heller but have never seen coins like this before.

    Any help would be great
