Really fell in love with these tokens in the mid to late 90's. Always in the market to buy more to add to this collection. Sorry for the bad pictures but all I have is a bad scanner. Other than that, enjoy. I'll keep adding more info on my tokens so check back now and then.(updated as of 5/17/16)(current updates 8/1/21, ongoing)(current update 11/18/24, due to old age have started selling some tokens through Davisson’s.)

View Coin 1797 1p G.Brit. GREAT BRITAIN - 1660-1815 1P 1797 G.BRIT D&H-1 GLOUCESTERSHIRE NGC MS 64 BN Gloucestershire, D&H-1, MS-64 BN. Edge: Plain. Rarity: easily met with. Diesinker: Wyon. - You just gotta love these penny tokens. They got the whole cathedral on this token and in the greatest detail. A work of art. The Gloucester, spelled Glocester on token, Cathedral is the glory of the city and mixes Norman, Transitional, Perpendicular, and Decorated architectural styles. The tower bell, called "The Great Peter" weighing over 3 tons is the oldest medeval one in the country. Even deep brown toning makes this token jump out of the white holder.
View Coin 1797 1p G.Brit. GREAT BRITAIN - 1660-1815 1P 1797 G.BRIT D&H-2 GLOUCESTERSHIRE NGC MS 65 BNP Gloucestershire, D&H-2, MS-65 BN PL. Edge: plain. Rarity: easily met with. Diesinker: Wyon. - Gotta love this one just like the last one. In fact, it's even better. Higher grade and prooflike. They once again got the whole church and school on the token and with details to boot. Another work of art. This old church lies in the heart of the city. Many generations have worshipped here and left their mark on its fabric. Here you see a tall Tudor east window. At the opposite end of the church a Norman doorway faces the street. In between is a 14th-century tower with delicate tracery. Inside you will find monuments to the great and good including brasses to John and Joan Cooke, founders of the Crypt Grammar School.
View Coin 1797 1p G. Brit. GREAT BRITAIN - 1660-1815 1P 1797 G.BRIT D&H-3 GLOUCESTER - GLOUCESTER NGC MS 62 BN Gloucestershire-Gloucester, D&H-3, MS-62 BN. Edge: plain. Rarity: Easily met with. Diesinker: Wyon - Another great looking token from the Gloucester series. Don't see much wrong with this one but for a tiny rim ding on the reverse. Picture of St. Mary de Lode Church on Southgate St. The site has housed a church from the 12th century, when it was known as the Church of the Blessed Mary within the Southgate. Also called Christ Church, and St. Mary in the South. Rebuilt and extended in the late 14th century, and again in the early 16th century. Robert Raikes (founder of Sunday School's), lies buried beneath the floor of the South Chapel. During the siege of Gloucester in 1643 the City used the church as a ammunition factory and store.
View Coin 1797 1p G. Brit. G.BRIT - GLOUCESTERSHIRE PENNY 1797 G.BRIT D&h-4 GLOUCESTERSHIRE E: PLAIN PCGS MS 64 Brown Gloucestershire-Gloucester, D&H-4, MS-64BN. Edge: Plain. Rarity: common. Diesinker & Manufacturer: Wyon or Kempson. In the D&H book these are listed as “easily met” with #4 being the scarcest. I haven’t found that to be true. Numbers 3, 8, and 9 I’ve seen offered several times but the others very seldom come up for sale. The Church is still in use and somewhat still resembles the church on the token. The name of St. Mary De Lode refers to the church being by a water way that had a ferry across a river to the west that members could access. Lode in old English meant water course. (I think, I believe, I read, I’ve been told). Off from eBay with a Heritage sticker
View Coin 1797 1p G. Brit. GREAT BRITAIN - 1660-1815 1P 1797 G. Brit. GLOUCESTERSHIRE D&H-5 NGC MS 64 BN Gloucestershire, D&H-5, MS-64 BN PL. Edge: plain. Rarity: easily met with. Diesinker: Wyon - Well, another great token with all the same greatness as the last two tokens, but this one does have a small spot in the obv. field.St Michael the Archangel church was in existence in the 12th century. The old church, apart from the 15th century tower, was demolished in 1849 and a new church erected which incorporated the old tower.
View Coin 1797 1p G.Brit. GREAT BRITAIN - 1660-1815 1P 1797 G.BRIT D&H-6 GLOUCESTERSHIRE NGC MS 66 BNP Gloucestershire, D&H-6, MS-66 BN PL. Edge: plain. Rarity: easily met with. Diesinker: Wyon - OMG, this has the smoothest mirrors I've ever seen on a Conder. They are so smooth and watery it's unbelievable. When it comes time for me to sell my tokens, I'll be on my deathbed, this is the one you want to get.
View Coin 1797 1p G.Brit. GREAT BRITAIN - 1660-1815 1P 1797 G.BRIT D&H-8 GLOUCESTERSHIRE NGC MS 64 BNP Gloucestershire, D&H-8, MS-64 BN PL. Edge: plain. Rarity: easily met with. Just as nice as the last but for the spots on the upper right. Great mirrors and almost looks like it's been bronzed. Whitefriars, also known as White Friers or The College of Carmelites, Gloucester, England, was a Carmelite friary of which nothing now survives.
The Friary was outside the north gate of the city and was founded around 1268 or 1269, probably by Queen Eleanor, Sir Thomas Gifford (or Giffard), and Sir Thomas Berkeley. By 1337 there were 31 friars resident. Can't seem to find anything about the building. I'll keep looking.
View Coin 1797 1p G. Brit. GREAT BRITAIN - 1660-1815 1P 1797 G.BRIT D&H-9 GLOUCESTER - GLOUCESTER NGC MS 62 BN Gloucestershire-Gloucester. D&H-9, MS-62 BN. Edge: plain. Rarity: easily met with. Diesinker: Wyon - This is the 3rd one of these I've purchased at auction, and it's the best one so far, it's only a 62 with some hairlines and a few dings. My first was a NGC-AU which I sold when I got my second one, a NGC 62, which I also sold. The third one is a 62 to but has better eye appeal. Flip has “Ex-Farnell” on it. I've never seen a high grade one yet. I know there's a few out there so I'll look for number four.

Rarity: Fairly common. - The first token in the series of London Buildings put out by Kempson. Pictured is the Hall as it is today. It's from a diff. angle. Nice even brown toning but a dull looking. Great high relief strike with awesome 3-D effect on Guild Hall.
View Coin 1790’s 1p G. Brit. GREAT BRITAIN - 1660-1815 1P 1788 G.BRIT D&H-49 KEMPSON'S CARLETON HOUSE NGC MS 63 BN Middlesex-Kempson's, D&H-49, MS-63 BN. Edge: plain Rarity: Fairly common. - Seem like NGC got the info wrong on this slab as they forgot to mention it's from Middlesex. Carlton House was a mansion in London, best known as the town residence of the Prince Regent for several decades from 1783. It faced the south side of Pall Mall, and its gardens abutted St. James's Park in the St James's district of London. The obverse of this token has watery fields with all the rainbow colors while the reverse is a even brown with the same watery fields, almost proof-like.
View Coin 1795 1p G.Brit. G.BRIT - MIDDLESEX PENNY 1795 G.BRIT D&h-52 MIDDLESEX - KEMPSON'S E: PLAIN D&H-52 NGC MS 63 RB Middlesex-Kempson’s, D&H-52, NGC-63RB, 1P. Edge: plain. Rarity: fairly common. Diesinker & Manufacturer: Wyon & Kempson. Okay, not as bad as these pictures show. The fields are almost proof like and very reflective with some nice purple and blues scattered around. Sure the black areas are there in these pictures but when view with the naked eye they’re not black but a deep brown with a purplish tint.

Part of the London Buildings series by Kempson. Great 75% red obverse with a few tiny spots. The reverse is more toned with maybe 15% red. from Heritage for around $100 in 2014
View Coin 1790's 1p G.Brit. GREAT BRITAIN - 1660-1815 1P (1790'S) GB D&H-59 MIDDLESEX - KEMPSON'S NGC MS 64 RB Middlesex-Kempson's, D&H-59, MS-64 BN. Edge: plain. Rarity: fairly common - One of those nice London Penny Tokens from Kempson. You just don't hear the words Ironmongers anymore let alone Almshouse as shown on this token. Proof-like obverse, more brown than red but nice and evenly layered, while the reverse is about the same but for a nice ring of red on the inside circles edge.
View Coin 1790's 1p G. Brit. G.BRIT - MIDDLESEX PENNY (1790'S)G.B. D&h-63 MIDDLESEX - KEMPSON'S E: PLAIN D&H - 63 NGC MS 64 RB Middlesex - Kempson's, D&H - 63, MS - 64 BN. Edge: Plain. Rarity- Fairly common. You just have to love these big Kempson's London Buildings series. This token has a die cud on both sides of the obverse. Oh how I'd love to have one of each of this series.

Same obverse as D&H-45. From Heritage for under $90 in 2014. Hard to find the penny tokens in MS-64 for under a $100. Somewhat even toning over semi-proof-like fields. Some nice colors hidden under the toning when viewed in the right light at just the right angle.
View Coin 1797 1p G.Brit. Great Britain 1660 - 1815 1P 1797 G.BRIT D&H-71 MIDDLESEX - KEMPSON'S E: I PROMISE TO PAY NGC TOKEN MS 62 BN Middlesex - Kempson's, D&H - 71, MS - 62 BN, Edge: I promise to pay..., Rarity: scarce. If not for a bad stain on the reverse I great looking token. The first fixed crossing at Blackfriars was a 995 feet (303 m) long toll bridge designed in an Italianate style by Robert Mylne and constructed with nine semi-elliptical arches of Portland stone. Beating designs by John Gwynn and George Dance, it took nine years to build, opening to the public in 1769. It was the third bridge across the Thames in the then built-up area of London, supplementing the ancient London Bridge, which dated from several centuries earlier, and Westminster Bridge. It was originally named "William Pitt Bridge" (after the Prime Minister William Pitt) as a dedication, but its informal name relating to the precinct within the City named after the Blackfriars Monastery, a Dominican priory which once stood nearby, was generally adopted.

View Coin 1795 1/2p G.Brit. GREAT BRITAIN - 1660-1815 1/2P 1795 G.BRIT D&H-467 MIDDLESEX-RICHARDSON'S NGC MS 63 BN Middlesex-Richardson's, D&H-467, MS-64 BN. Edge: plain? Rarity: common - Nice looking mark free token with a nice shade of orange poking out around the letters. I sure wish NGC would grade these token the same as they grade U.S. lg. cents. I've seen more than my share of cents that look worse than this token and they always get graded higher. If this token were a lg. cent it would be a MS64 for sure and maybe a 65. I also contend that it has enough red poking out to be a R/B. D&H does'nt list what's on the edge for this token.
View Coin 1795 1/2p G.Brit. Great Britain 1660-1815 1/2P 1795 G.BRIT D&H-468 MIDDLESEX - RICHARDSON'S E: PLAIN NGC TOKEN MS 63 BN Middlesex-Richardson's, D&H - 468 MS-63 BN, Edge: plain, Rarity: common. Nice glossy fields that are somewhat ruff, like a buffalo type 1 field, and a great chestnut brown tone. There is a die crack on the obverse across from 2 to 7 o'clock.
View Coin 1790's 1/2p G.Brit. G.BRIT - MIDDLESEX 1/2P (1790'S)G.B. D&h-539c MIDDLESEX E: COARSE MILLING \\\ NGC MS 63 BN Middlesex, D&H - 539c, MS - 63 BN. Edge: Coarse Milling \\\. Rarity- Fairly common. But for one small spot obverse near the rim this token looks much better than the grade.
View Coin 1790's 1/2p G.Brit. GREAT BRITAIN - 1660-1815 1/2P (1790'S)G.B. D&H-585 MIDDLESEX-SKIDMORE CHURCH NGC MS 64 BN Middlesex-Skidmore Church, D&H-585, MS-64 BN. Edge: plain. Rarity: fairly common. - Very colorful token on the obverse with proof-like fields.The reverse die rotated about 15%. The reverse fields are still prooflike but don't pop as much as the obverse. Not a very pretty church.

View Coin 1796 1p G.Brit. GREAT BRITAIN - 1660-1815 1P 1796 G.BRIT D&H-11 SUFFOLK - IPSWICH NGC MS 64 TRB Suffolk-Ipswich, D&H-11, MS-64 RB. Edge: I Promise to pay... One Penny. Rarity: R - James Conder (1763–1823) ran a drapery business in Ipswich in the 18th century. He was one of the first people to catalogue the 18th Century independently minted copper trade coinage that now often bears his name as a category of coins known as Conder Tokens. He published the first catalog that would remain the definitive source concerning these coins for almost 100 years. He did not simply study the Tokens, he was a contemporary businessman who also issued his own Tokens to advertise his business. What a great token. I also have the half penny token listed later (D&H-35). I just could not get a good scan of the obverse so here's a picture I found on the web.
View Coin 1789 1p G.Brit. GREAT BRITAIN - 1660-1815 1P 1789 G.BRIT D&H-12 WARWICKSHIRE - T.JOHNSON NGC MS 63 RB Warwickshire-T.Johnson, D&H-12, MS-63 RB. Edge: plain. Rarity: common. - This token and the next show a couple of boxers that had a 100 or more round fight. I have the story laying around somewhere and when I find it I'll list it here.

Rarity: common. - You just got to love these big penny tokens. This token has a little planchet void which I'm sure lowered the grade one point.
View Coin 1796 1p G. Brit. G.BRIT - WARWICKSHIRE PENNY 1796 G.BRIT D&h-37 WARWICKSHIRE - BIRMINGHAM E: PLAIN #1236 NGC AU 55 BN Warwickshire-Birmingham, D&H-37, AU-55 BN. Edge: plain. Rarity: R - Some claim this is not a true Conder but a trucking marker. J. Conder had it listed and that's good enough for me. This one is numbered 1236. I've only seen one other which I bid on and lost. This is my lowest graded token and there's nothing wrong with that. Update-saw another one a few months back (12-1-2011). Updated 1/21/2020- this is now the 4th one I’ve seen.
View Coin 1790 1/2p G.Brit. Great Britain 1660 - 1815 1/2P 1790 G.BRIT D&H-147 WARWICKSHIRE - BIRMINGHAM E: PLAIN NGC TOKEN MS 61 BN Warwickshire - Birmingham, D&H - 147, MS-61 BN. Don't know where that MS-61 came from, It looks like a solid MS-63 to me. Semi-profflike fields, touch of mellow red poking out here and there, a few ticks but very small ones. Okay, so the rims may be a bit crude, but MS-61, give me a brake. This token starts a series of Churches and Chapels by Kempson that end at D&H 218. Other than the Coventry tokens, to follow in just a bit, this is my favorite series and I'll be trying to get one of each. So sit back and enjoy most of this series.

Edge: plain, Rarity: Common. Great looking token with proof-like fields. Die crack top right obverse and some light blue bottom reverse.

Rarity: common. - What's not to like about these Kempson tokens, well designed with the device taking up most of the field so you can see everything. This one is more red than brown. This is number 6 in the Kempson Chruches and Chapels series. There are five diff. reverses for this series. Three of them are much the same, one having an extra legend, and one is an Ottley die with a bigger shield.

Rarity: common - Some nice blues and magenta mixed in here and there to give this token great eye appeal. Proof-like fields but there are a few hairlines scattered about.

Rarity: common. - Nice match to the last token but the toning is a bit uneven. Deep prooflike fields and great colors. There is a small cud by the first C in church that the D&H picture does not show. This second picture is not my token but it does show the cud that mine has.

Rarity: Common. - Okay, the spots on the obv. don't look as bad when you see the coin in true size. Great proof like fields with greens and magentas flowing around. There is a small planchet flaw on the reverse and a small flaw on the obv. rim at 9 o'clock. Another from the McHenry collection auctioned by Goldbergs.

Rarity: common. This is the last Kempson'e Chruchs and Chapels in this series. It does not have a church or a chapel on it but instead we get George the III. I guess it's an okay way to end the series by paying honour to the king but I'd rather have another building.

Rarity: Scarce - Nice dark chestnut toning with proof field as you would expect from a proof 64. The obv. shows "Remains of Cathedral" but which cathedral is it? I'll do a little more research I guess. The dark spots on the rev. aren't as bad as they look in this picture as the token is much darker than the picture looks. This is the first token in a series of churchs, gates, halls and so on and so forth. This is another series that I'm trying to complete. There are 19 obverses, and a bunch of diff. reverses. I have 9 so I'm not even half way.
