Copper alloy rose and orb type jetton of Hans Krauwinckel II (Master 1586, died March 1635). It appears to be of the rose and orb type with the orb in tressure design on the obverse and three crowns alternating with three fleurs de lis on the reverse. The inscriptions are very worn but the end of the reverse legend: *HANNS [KRAVWIN]CKEL IN NV (which is normally the obverse legend) is NV, suggesting that the obverse legend is probably GOTES SEGEN MACHT REIC.

Copper alloy French shield jetton, struck in Tournai c.1417-1497, after 1423 when Charles VII (1422-1461) introduced the silver Blanc à la coronelle (coin), and late in the 15th century as it is a thick 'piefort' or piedfort, which means heavy foot, jetton.
