had a look on the net and got this
In daily business jettons were most commonly used for reckoning accounts, used on a checker-board in the manner of an abacus. In the 16th century and later, Nuremberg was responsible for the production of vast quantities of such counters. Hans Schultes was a prominent Nuremberg maker and this example is of a type of stock-jetton found in great numbers in England, which persisted throughout the 17th century. The reverse depicts the Reichsapfel, or orb, and the legend HANS.SCHVLTES.NVRENB.

the only thing is my legend wrong all the rest looks the same and this one is gold
