Hello all,
I purchased a bulk lot of tokens and that was inside:
Now thanks to the french side of the Forum I know that it's a Nuremberg Token of Hans Schultes, french style.
Weight : 4.50gr
Ø : 27mm
Metal : brass
Please can someone help me to find a references ? I know there is several books about this kind of tokens but I can't find any PDF on internet.
Thansks in advance :-)

At the end of Mitchiner's book he gives the approximate value in British pounds (1988) for the jetons. Most of Schultes jetons were valued around £ 2 in Fine condition. This was valued at £ 25.
