t360 Pillar of the Community United States 2703 Posts	Posted 11/13/2011 6:41 pm I don't know why this topic was moved. It is considered a US colonial coin and is listed as such in Chapter 3 of Breen's Complete Encyclopedia of US and Colonial Coins. I placed it in the Grading Section of US Classic Coins to get the opinion of US colonial collectors on the grade. Report this Post to the Staff
vermontensium Moderator United States 16679 Posts	Posted 11/13/2011 6:57 pm Unfortunately, there are only a few of us on the CCF interested in Colonials. There is no Colonial section. I usually place mine in the Classic section too. Since the exact intention of these tokens is unknown, there is only speculation whether they were intended for use in the American Colonies or not. Here is a brief background. Very cool Colonial and one I don't have http://www.coins.nd.edu/ColCoin/Col...s.intro.html swcoin.ecrater.com Report this Post to the Staff
