Comments
Damianus and Hans Krauwinckel were brothers. Egidius and Hanns II were Damianus' sons, and for a time they produced tokens together. Hanns Krauwinckel II tokens are the most common. Hanns's sister Barbara married Georg Lauffer and, on Hanns's death, the family business was taken over by the Lauffer family.
