[QUOTE="Numismat, post: 2941178, member: 15019"]Picked up a pair of these "love tokens" inscribed on German Empire coins. As is often the case, the straight technical translation from Google doesn't make complete sense. I could really use some insight from a native speaker. First: 1887 pfennig, inscription: "Ein Sehelm der mehr giebt alser hat" Second: (1877)F 50 pfennig, SM (or MS) monogram surrounded by inscription: "ES IST BESTIMMT IN GOTTES RAT" "MUSS SCHEIDEN" "DASS MAN VOM LIEBSTEN" "WAS MAN HAT" (uncertain of correct order) Much appreciated :) [ATTACH=full]716206[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]716207[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
