WWI German Mombach Canteen/Trade 5 Pfennig Token - F/VF Condition - Zinc - Factory/Lunch/Canteen Goods Trade Token

This listing is for the photographed WWI German Mombach Canteen/Trade 5 Pfennig Token - F/VF Condition.

This was Kriegsnotgeld (war emergency money). During WWI, Germany experienced severe shortages of ordinary small-denomination coins because copper and other metals were needed for the war effort. This token was most likely manufactured by a company to use within their workers area for drinks, food, and other uses.
