enworb Pillar of the Community Australia 4411 Posts	Posted 03/07/2012 01:22 am I reckon it has been cleaned pretty harsh as well becayse around the verd spots there is quite deep pitting. Verd was probably once much worse. I reckon Sap would be in the know with this one. Report this Post to the Staff
trout1105 Pillar of the Community Australia 7096 Posts	Posted 03/07/2012 01:25 am I have no idea about tokens and don't usually bother with them, But this one I like. No date on it but it must be old to have Hobart town on it. Nice design Report this Post to the Staff

trout1105 Pillar of the Community Australia 7096 Posts	Posted 03/07/2012 03:45 am 1860..... first Aussie coins came out in 1910 and 1911 for coppers. This would have been used as normal currency in its day. Great bit of history in this Definite keeper in my opinion Report this Post to the Staff
