Ben Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 4208 Posts	Posted 08/12/2013 08:29 am Got locked in a vicious bidding war for this one. Spent more than I would have liked to, but its in a beauuutiful grade: Not so good, but I reckon it will be nice: 3 rim dings, but no wear to speak of! Not sure if ill keep this one or my current one (its got traces of red left in the deeeep gouges put into it), but I reckon I got it cheap. Lets hear some guesses as to the price!

Silver tokens seem to come in higher grades. I have about six British silver tokens. I am sacreligious! I should be collecting Australian tokens! They also have quite a following. I DID have the British Museum example of the Mc Intosh & Degraves shilling in the palm of my hand once. The Mc Intosh & Degraves Shilling token is worth a Google search and images, for those who may be interested. It is extremely rare. Report this Post to the Staff

Ben Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 4208 Posts	Posted 08/16/2013 2:43 pm Well this one isn't staying with me long. Its been polished - was probably UNC beforehand. Vulcan and Anvil side is still really nice, very very sharp, but Wilkinson's seen better days. Report this Post to the Staff
