Title |
'Alphabet' Jetton |
||
Description |
English: A complete copper alloy jetton of the Rechenmeister type with a Rechenmeister seated facing, at his counting table, on the obverse and the alphabet arranged in five lines within a frame on the reverse. Sometimes referred to as 'school pennies', this type of jetton shows a rechenmeister, or accountant using jettons to do accounts on a chequered board or cloth (which is where we get the phrase Exchequer). This example probably dates to the 16th century AD.
Unlike PAS record SUSS-67BFB5, which has legends indicating that the jetton was issued by Wulf Laufer (c. 1554-1601 AD), this jetton has has a fleured trellice on the obverse and a series of annulets and sets of triple pellets in lieu of literate legends. In addition, the alphabet spelled on the reverse is incorrect: 'ABCD(retrograde)E/FGHIK/LMNOP/QRSTV/:XYZZ'. |
