Drusus Posted July 24, 2008 Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 Got this coin I am looking to put on my website...I know what it is, a municipal city bank issue of war token money. The only question I have left is...anyone know what the woman is doing? Is that an artillery shell in her hand? Is she working in a munitions factory? I know this town did manufacture munitions, at least for WWII? maybe WWI as well...I havent been able to find this online explaining what she is up to.

banivechi Posted July 24, 2008 Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 Yes it'a a woman worker in a ammunition factory. Installing fuses onto artillery shells looks like it's her job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
