I have this token in my family for a long time but I don't know too much about it. All I know is that it's a regional token from Turnu Severin(Romania). Graf was a bread factory in the interwar period and WW2. I think it's from around 1942-1944, but I don't know what was used for. Weight is 2.4 grams and diameter is 3 cm. Does anyone else know more? Or have you got similar one?
Given on what you say, it's probably a "Good for 1 loaf" token. These were quite common in many parts of the world (including here in North America) in the earlier part of the 20th century, especially in periods of economic depression and/or shortage of coins.

I know it wasn't on here or anywhere else, not even a mention of the factory even! Thanks!
