Owner Comments:

This is an example of Kempson famous Handel Reverse they are all rare. Handel was born in Germany moved to England were he wrote the famous Messiah. He became an English citizen and was buried in Westminster Abby. They loved him and he loved them. Kempson paid his respect by putting this reverse on his tokens. The mintages were low which does make them pricy but worth it.. Thanks Mike
