2 Pfennig - München Artilleriedepot

German military depot tokens occupy an awkward documentary space — neither official Reichscoinage nor purely private issue — and the München Artilleriedepot pieces are among the better-catalogued examples of this class. These zinc tokens circulated internally within the depot's canteen or store system, allowing the military administration to control soldier spending without releasing standard coinage into an environment where it might not return. The specific Hasselmann reference points to a known type with at least two die variants, suggesting production in sufficient quantity to warrant multiple working dies.
