Not sure as I don't have my book with me but I don't think there are. If you are interested in tokens you should grab a copy of: http://www.charltonpress.com/Numism...780889683518 Its a great book.

Charlton identifies these as PC 5C1 (Plain 4) and PC 5C2 (Crosslet 4).

In 1934, Doctor Eugene Courteau published a tome on the St. George and the
Dragon series. Dr. Courteau identifies some 47 different sub-varieties
within this series. Collecting this series by Courteau variety is most
challenging.

Original copies of Doctor Courteau's work on the St. George tokens are
scarce and somewhat pricy. The lending library of either the American
Numismatic Association or the Royal Canadian Numismatic Association should
have copies to loan. On some occasions copies appear in Numismatic Auction
sales. I have also found copies by googling ABEbooks.

E-mail me and I can provide a zerox copy.

Word of warning. This is addictive.
