Colonials
(1694) TOKEN London Elephant Token, Thick Planchet, Hodder 2-B, W-12040, R.2, AU58 NGC. Die alignment: 360˚. A mellow golden-brown piece with a choice elephant and smooth reverse fields. The plain cross features the dagger in the first quadrant on this variety. Cracks to the first N of LONDON are noticeable. A light scratch through the second R of PRESERVED is noted. A bit of roughness to the rims is mostly attributable to these having been struck on cast planchets. Listed on page 48 of the 2018 Guide Book.
