Circa 1635 
Hans Krauwinckel 
Jeton 
(Reckoning Counter)

Though the concept of the reckoning counter is thought to have originated in France in the 13th century, Nuremberg, Germany became a major supplier by the end of the 14th century. The Germans called them rechenpfennige and by the 16th century the jeton trade was mostly in the hands of a few families such as Laufer, Schultes and Krauwinckel. Their names appear on one side of the jeton.

The most common of the renaissance era manufacturers were the jetons of Hans Krauwinckel (1586 – 1635). The most common design of the Krauwinckel jetons is a design of crowns and fleur-de-lis on the obverse with the inscription HANS KRAUWINCKEL IN NUR (Hans Krauwinckel in Nuremberg). The reverse shows a Reichsapfel, a cross on globe in a triglobe, with the legend GOTT ALLEIN DIE EERE SEI, (roughly: G-d’s watching), a warning about honest counting.
