| Beschrijving voorzijde | Octagonal zinc notgeld token with a pearl border running along the inner edge of all eight sides. The numeral '5' appears prominently in the central field, flanked by a circular dot border. A circular legend in raised Latin characters surrounds the central denomination, reading 'A. HERBST & M. OSTERTAG BAUGESCHÄFT' at the top and 'NÜRNBERG' at the base, separated by six-pointed star ornaments. The overall design is utilitarian in style, consistent with German wartime small-change substitute coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Issued by a Nürnberg construction firm, this zinc notgeld token belongs to the wave of privately-issued emergency coinage that flooded Germany between roughly 1916 and 1922, as the imperial and later republican governments repeatedly failed to keep small-denomination metal coinage in circulation. Zinc was the material of last resort — hoarded copper and nickel had long since vanished — and private employers frequently issued their own scrip to pay workers in usable fractional amounts.
Baugeschäft tokens of this kind rarely survived in quantity; construction sites are not gentle environments for thin zinc.
