JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21605 Posts	Posted 01/26/2015 11:45 am Looking in the catalogue, can't see any variety with the British Flag that is worth half that in uncirculated condition. Maybe I'm missing something or their is a rare variety. Report this Post to the Staff

Normic67 Pillar of the Community 798 Posts	Posted 01/26/2015 6:54 pm You know your addicted to coin collecting when... you buy a token for $1400 because of a simple hard to see and hard to notice variety if it even is a variety. Report this Post to the Staff

colonialtokens Pillar of the Community United States 840 Posts	Posted 01/26/2015 10:25 pm The Lees 22 is a mighty rare token. The Rarity factor is 10. Why a 1859 RP 9 #1 Vicky Cent more valuable than a generic 59 Vicky, after all, it is merely a 'variety.' The Lees 22 is the key variety within the series. doug Report this Post to the Staff
