A nice Duseaman bouquet that I grabbed recently. Grades F-VF as far as I can tell; opinions narrowing this down are welcome.   Is anyone aware of the bouquet sou variety whose obverse was used to make this token? I can find no mention of it in Charlton. Additionally, have any examples of this ever been discovered without (or at different stages of) the characteristic obverse and reverse die cracks? Cheers. |

I like your token
when you say "strike upside down" do you feel the die axis on your example is different than others?
I have a couple of examples I'm trying to gather more info on as well

Die axis. Regular strike nothing special! I just turn 180 degrees to have them on the same side. This one have more details t'en the other one I have.

nice eagle blarg,
I would also give it an F/VF, although the dies were very crudely made, in XF+ grades there is a lot more detail offered, although hard to recognized without seeing alot of examples.
Like the dragon slayer series these grade differently from typical decimal series.
Yours is a nice example

One of mine:  Why did they continue to show George IV on these after his death in 1830? Or is the portrait not meant to be George IV? |
