EDITORS COMMENTS
This intriguing war charity token, known as the K. Wurttemberg Scheidemunze, dates back to the First World War. The token is shaped like a German Infantryman's pikelhaube, or pickelhaube, a distinctive helmet with a spike on top, which was commonly used by the German military during this period. The helmet is hinged, allowing it to be opened to reveal a small metal thimble enclosed within. The K. Wurttemberg Scheidemunze was produced as a war charity token during the First World War. The token was likely created in Württemberg, a German state located in the south of modern-day Germany. The exact purpose of the token is not clear, but it is believed to have been used as a form of currency or exchange in the trenches. The token's intricate design and functional thimble make it a unique piece of trench art. Trench art refers to the artifacts created by soldiers during wartime, often using materials readily available to them. These items served as a form of entertainment, comfort, and connection to home for soldiers in the harsh conditions of the trenches. The K. Wurttemberg Scheidemunze is a testament to the creativity and resourcefulness of soldiers during the First World War. Its intricate design and historical significance make it a valuable addition to any military history or trench art collection.
