Description: | Copper alloy Nuremburg Rose and Orb jetton, dating to the early post medieval period, possibly by master Hans Krauwinckel II (c AD1550-1635). Obverse depicts three crowns alternating with three fleur de lis, arranged centrifugally around a central rose. Obverse inscription: KAN WRERN (NIMAN). The reverse depicts an Imperial orb surmounted by a cross patty, within a tressure with three main arches. Reverse inscription: HAN [NS KR] AV (ELR) IN NVREMBER. The jetton has a rectangular perforation hole at one end, possibly for suspension as a pendant as a secondary use.
