Fun things! I guess the Ceylon planters had a bit better idea of elephant anatomy than the makers of the Elephant Tokens we're all more familiar with.

Those elephant tokens are something I'll have to keep an eye out for! Here's my entire Ceylon collection so far.  |

Hello ishfar,
I just showed some pictures from my collection. So not to be sold.
I think a complete set of this tokens will do about € 100,- at this moment.

Hello Siraonline,
Yes I think I might have some tokens you still can use the pictures. But I'm not sure or I like to participate. Because I don't like the manner how you show the pictures of the coins with the big 'Ceylon tokens' on it.
Maybe you can find an other way to do that... because in my opinion it is not very enjoyable to look at the pictures now...
