I acquired this coin and can not find out exactly what it is. I know that it's a German States Nuremberg coin, that I'm positive, I believe it's a 1Heller coin from the 1400's, I'm pretty sure about that too, but I can not find it in any publication that I have searched through though. I used calipers to take measurements, and put it on the scale for the weight. It is 16mm in diameter, .42mm thick, and it weighs .53g. I believe that it is billon. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello again suggested you reach out to kunker on facebook , unfortunately I can’t find anything line and my book is use for most of the website here for German states coins only goes as far back as 1500’s, there is a book for older Nuremberg wich we have listed but that is for coins I don’t know if this is a token or a coin but if a coin it should be a very old pfennig. Or maybe a heller but really on hall at the time was using those but some outside could exist
Here is the email from Kunker Auction house, I reached out to them following a suggestion from another member and surprisingly they emailed me back, I'm just going to post what they sent me back with screenshots. Thanks everyone, once again I'm reminded of how amazing fellow numismatics are!!!

Ok so they sent pictures to the book that covers an auction of coins from erlanger‘s collection, however Erlanger wrote a book on all medieval coins made in Nuremberg that he knew about and I recently was able to get a download myself of that book where this is cataloged as #100 and it is referenced as such on the new numista page.
