These are zinc notgeld, or emergency money, made in Wurttemburg, Germany during the early 1900s. There are three denominations, 5, 10, and 50 pfennig, all with the arms-over-shield pattern. The reverse of the 5 and 10 pfennig tokens is a little different than the 50 pfennig, but the arms side is the same.
These are very interesting pieces. There are hundreds of different notgeld. You can read our general write-up on notgeld, with pictures and values, at this link [click here].
For these particular pieces, values are fairly low except when in great condition. Denomination does not affect value very much. Condition and eye appeal are the main factors contributing to value.
