A copper alloy jetton of the rose and orb type dating to the period 1562 to 1635. The obverse depicts three lis and three crowns arranged alternately in a circle around a central rose. Much of the legend is no longer present however it is possible to read NS KR ... WINCKE which probably refers to one of two individuals which struck jettons at this time in Nuremburg, both named Hanns Krauwinckel. The reverse depicts an orb surmounted by a cross within a tressure of three main arches. It is possible to read SEGEN...ACHT which suggests that the legend read GOTES SEGEN MACHT REICH.
