Description: | A very worn copper alloy probable jetton of the post-medieval period. The jetton is very worn and not much detail can be made out; the inscriptions on either face are mostly illegible, however the name 'lauffer' can be made out. There were several Lauffers striking jetton in Nuremberg between AD 1554 and 1716. It is uncertain who this jetton was struck by however it is probably a rose/orb type issued in late 16th or 17th century AD. The jetton has been bent almost in half.
