GIES, Löwe (Lion),1912,18.3mm, Cast silver, 1.7g. Ernsting WVZ 9

Four examples exist with one located in the Castle Morsbroich in Leverkusen, Germany; one in the State Museum in Munich; and two in private collections...one of which is this one.

Obverse: Lion

Reverse: The Munich Child with date below.

It is amazing the detail of this piece considering that it is cast and the size of a dime.
