Europa C&O #371 - Zellerfeld Muenzenmeisterpfennige Copper 1722.

20 June 2018:  Greetings to all coin & token collectors where-ever you might be!

Heron is pleased to report the addition of #371, an item issued in Zellerfeld Germania.  It is a Copper Muenzenmeisterpfennige dated 1722.  Probably will be

the only Muenzenmeisterpfennige for the accumulation.  An example!

 

The Item: Zellerfeld Muenzenmeisterpfennige - Copper - 1722.

 

Side 1: Stag in oval.  Surrounding is fancy cartouche.

Side 2: 3 flowers in vase.  Surrounding is fancy cartouche.

             Legend: I. G. TOPFFER. K. G. BR. A. G. U. F. BR.LUN. MUNTZ. COMISSAR.ZZ.  Dated 17-vase-22.

20 de Junio 2018:  Don't ask Heron what happened?  Heron just now discovered that the innernet repair-installation buy is working on the connections for our street.

Krazy stuff happens when the repair truck is near our location.

 

Regardos.
