It was certainly a slang expression then, so may well not suit.

Explanation:
At the underground level of the Central Station, cocaine Plomben (i.e. balls), above all, can befound. In the streets left of the Kaiserstraße, heroin and other narcotic substances
The minimal heroin dose is not the gram, but the Plombe, a new selling unit thatbecame popular in the 1990s and has largely substituted the previous ‘packs’. Plombenare small amounts of heroin or cocaine that are wrapped in several strata of condom orother type of plastic. On the Frankfurt, as well as on other drug markets, Plomben were introduced by North American dealers, who keep them in their mouth and swallow themif they are approached by the police. A Plombe containing slightly less than a quarter ofa gram can currently be bought for about DM 20-25 (Euros 10,2-12,3) (InterviewsFF42; Interview FF30). Smaller Plomben (about 0,1 grams) can, however, be purchased for as little as DM 10 (Euros 5,1) (Interviews FF21, FF30, and FF29).
