1700 AD GERMANIC ALCHEMY COIN

An alchemical medal or token of the type struck in German-speaking lands around 1700, carrying planetary or hermetic symbols rather than a ruler's portrait. Such pieces circulated among practitioners and patrons of chymistry rather than as currency, and this card could not match the specific example to a documented mint, patron or collection.

The card

• Date — 1,700 AD
• Where — German-speaking Central Europe (numismatic tradition); no findspot recorded. No coordinates are given on the map for this reason.
• Evidence grade — WEB-PHOTO
