Street car token for Nurnberg-Furth during the Weimar inflationary period. Twenty pfennig - 1920's. There are 45 different subject tokens in this series. When I wrote my e-book I was unable to find information on this particular fountain. Today it's called Tritons Fountain and German Wikipedia describes it here:

This appears to be a copy of one in Rome, as it has similarities with the Fontana del Tritone on the Piazza Barberini in Rome, created by Gian Lorenzo Bernini in 1642–1643. The Barberini Crest is at the base with 3 Bees, they also appear on the Nurnberg fountain.
