| Beschrijving voorzijde | Octagonal zinc notgeld token with a raised numeral '10' prominently displayed in the central field, enclosed within a continuous beaded inner circle. The circular legend ROSITZER BRAUNKOHLENWERKE A.-G. runs along the outer border between two beaded rims, with a single six-pointed star appearing at the base of the legend. The overall design is plain and utilitarian, consistent with wartime emergency small-change token coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Rositz, in the lignite-rich Altenburg district of Thuringia, was one of the most productive brown coal mining regions in central Germany during the early twentieth century. The Rositzer Braunkohlenwerke issued this zinc token to pay workers in company scrip — a practice common in isolated industrial communities where the company controlled both the mine and the local retail infrastructure, ensuring wages cycled back through company-owned stores.
Zinc was the practical choice during wartime metal restrictions, particularly the World War I era when copper and nickel were reserved for military procurement.
