Gambling Kakelorum (also called "Glugger- or Marmelkönig")
Description
This wooden cacelorum is of unusual quality, particularly evident on the crowning head. The game is purely a game of chance: the ball runs down through the "tower" and lands at random in one of the depressions. Their number indicates the value of the throw.
