Comments :
Date incomplete. Old fake reformation period with signs of overstriking from earlier type. Very scarce.
Very well-crafted old reformation period fakes, often made in illegal workshops, intended to deceive the population. These coins circulated as real in the past. At the time, possessing and putting counterfeit money into circulation was punishable by death.
