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.

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.

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Edge: I promise to pay…, Rarity: Scarce. Diesinker & Manufacturer: Wyon, Kempson’s. Nice chestnut brown token with the usual somewhat proof like fields. Not really sure what the low grade is about as it seems like a 63 if not a 64 to me. The last 11 tokens of this series go from fairly common to scarce.
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.

Rarity: fairly common - A real killer token. As close to red as you can get without getting it. The slab it was in before had it as red. Oh man, that's what you get with cross overs. I really like this grading service but they just seemed to vanish one day. The guy, whos name I can't seem to remember, was helpfull and nice and knew his tokens. Sorry to see him go whatever his name was.

Diesinker-Manufacturer: Wyon, Kempson. Really great looking token. The obv. has somewhat proof like fields and a great even chestnut brown tone. There is a small die crack on the right rim running up a tiny bit. The rev. Is wonderful in that Justice looks as if she’s been bronzed and really stands out even from the proof like fields. Purchased on eBay for around $85 which is a great price for a scarce token graded by NGC and a true mint state 64.
View Coin 1790's 1/2p G.Brit. Great Britain 1660 - 1815 1/2P (1790'S) GB D&H-416a MIDDLESEX - PIDCOCK'S E: MILLED \\\ NGC TOKEN MS 63 BN Middlesex - Pidcock's, D&H - 416a, MS - 63 BN. Edge: milled \\\, Rarity: common. Isn't this just a great series.I wonder if anyone has ever put a complete set together. Dalton and Hamer say common but this is the first one I've ever seen. I've been looking for one since I started collecting Conders as I have a thing for rhinos. The family knows that if a zoo has a rhino in it, we stop. The Detroit Zoo has a nice pair of them.

Rarity: R. - This is a token from one of the greatest series in the Conder tokens. This token has some hairlines on the reverse but is very clean on the obverse. I'd show a scan of the reverse but it's a bit to dark. Above is an ad for pidcock's show.

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.

Obverse shows the Newgate gate built in 1670.Part of the Skidmore's Churches and Gates series that start at Middlesex D&H 536 and go all the way to D&H 675.

Rarity: scarce. - Well, I don't know. NGC has it labeled as a 2 pence but D&H has it listed under Pennies and say nothing about it being anything else. The size alone would indicate it being a two pence token. The reverse has a nice blue sheen to it. Has the look of a bronzed token. The Abbey Church on the reverse is just grand and a piece of art that shows well on the big planchet.

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.

Rarity: Common. - I don't know about this token being common as this is the only mint state one I've ever seen. Nice big token with a full reverse. Nice hat dude. The edge states this is from 1796 but NGC says 1790's. Sekford was honored for making maps of Suffolk at his own cost in 1574. The toning line across the reverse looks as if a piece of string had layed on it for awhile.

Rarity: common. - Common, hmmmm, okay, I have seen several of these around but 65 R&B. Not common in this grade. OMG, do I need a good camera as this token would look great. The reverse die for this token broke after striking and was then used for Suffolk 36 after adding the date 1796. After striking both half pennies it was then use as the reverse die for one of the penny tokens of Conder (D&H-11).

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.

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.
