Watch List notes:

Research collection of 20 British copper "COLUMBIA" farthing tokens, believed to be struck 1820-30. 60.03 grams total. All different dies (each with catalog information penciled on tag), Fine to XF+, a few with traces of original color and luster. Some believe the bust on these mysterious coins is Simon Bolivar, although a few (missing the word COLUMBIA but from the same series) show a bust that people think is the Duke of Wellington, the connection being that soldiers under Wellington came to fight under Bolivar after the Napoleonic wars, but no one knows the exact meaning or use of these tokens. Most likely they were made in Birmingham, England.

Estimate: $200 - 400
