I've never seen one like this with the plough on the other side. Normaly it's the guy with the clown hair and bulbous nose!

Anyone seen this?

The first photo. show the reverse of a Macclesfield Halfpenny of 1791. The obverse should show a portrait of Charles Roe who established the copper works there in 1758.See this link:-

Token #1 sold for $12.- (about the same condition as yours). Token #2 sold for $38.- but was graded at EF (much better condition than your own).

Your post makes me think you are saying both images are of the same token. Is this what you mean?

If so, you have something a little out of the ordinary.

Yes I posted each side of the same token. I thought it was different.
