bhmtokens New Member Canada 48 Posts	Posted Today 13H 4M ago I just picked this up. I thought it was a interesting advertising token. John Cheek also wrote 'The Young Angler's Guide' in 1839. It is still in print today. Report this Post to the Staff

daltonista Pillar of the Community United States 1074 Posts	Posted Today 50M ago Lovely acquisitions, everybody! But I have a few questions... zookeeperz, what does "OE" signify in your intro to that great-looking penny? NumisRob, I'm familiar with oak leaves all over my silver and copper tokens, but they're generally just used in wreaths that surround a denomination or coat of arms. Is this the first use of an oak branch as the main "device" on a UK coin? Aside from strength and stability, does it carry any special significance in British iconography? (I get thistles and shamrocks, etc., but oaks... ) bhmtokens, I remember hearing about an unusual admiralty case involving a craft named "John Cheek" a few years back. Something to do with trawling around the Falklands. (Just to show how close we can all come to immortality...just open a shop and write a book!) My contribution this week is this 1811 silver shilling token from Barnstaple in Devonshire -- likely a municipal issue, as they're still striking tokens to this day, albeit aluminum 5p pieces.
