This is another reason why no Conder collector anyone out there tokens with P.S.C.G. They put the wrong D&H number on it. Very important. What they did is change the rarity. The numbers can mean the same like in our Sheldon scale. This went from a double rarity to a common. I will add the edge writing later. This is a D&H 27 not a 28. But mistake changes from a double rarity to a common.. Which is fine by me. There all beautiful and all tell a story. Thanks Mike

These beautiful tokens were won at auction. Sorry it was P.C.G.S If you look at the walls of the cave and lion it's like a painting. Now the cypher on the reverse is that of P. Kempson. I tried to confirm that this was actually in his own collection. But proving provenance in a coin 221 years old is hard. I was told though by a collector of great respect that it was. Enjoy the beautiful color and detail. Edge writing promise to pay on demand bearer one penny
