World Tokens, the Property of a North Country Collector

Gibraltar, Victoria, presumably a currency token, obv. VICTORIA / 8 / GIB, rev. a Lyre, the value of '8' was presumably for 8 Centimos (nearly 1 Penny) thus indicating the token pre-dates 1898, white metal, 18mm (Lyall 1258). Slightly corroded otherwise nearly very fine, rare £30-£50

---

bt. 1990

The lyre on the reverse would seem to indicate the Victoria was a musical society, however, no club or society has been identified with this name. It might well be that it pre-dates 1881
