Comment

Token for "table skittles" built by Félix Woll.
The bowling alleys in question were 2 m long and 80 cm wide.

Félix Woll ran a mechanical engineering and joinery business at 200, avenue de Longwy, Rodange (Luxembourg).
His joinery was registered in 1917, but he was active beyond that date.
These activities were quite diverse, and ceased in the late 1940s or early 1950s.

Despite appearances, the right and reverse sides of this token are quite different.

Two separate dies were used to strike this coin.
The placement of the monogram in the field is slightly different from one side to the other.
The letter F on the right is wider than on the reverse, and the shape of the W also varies.
