17th Century Tokens from Other Properties
LONDON, uncertain location, R.A.C. at the ipswich tavern, Farthing, 1648, 1.02g/6h (N –; BW. Suffolk 168). Fair to fine, rare; worthy of further research £50-£70
---
Provenance: C.F.K. Granger Collection, DNW Auction T14, 1 October 2014, lot 153 (part); R.H. Thompson Collection, DNW Auction 191, 4-5 May 2021, lot 735 (part) [from N.A. Clark]; S.J. Lamb Collection [from G. Ward May 2021]
Almost all the early prototypes for the series, dated 1648 and hence struck between 30 January 1648/9 and 24 March 1648/9, are from London, and at least one specimen of this token has been found in the city (PAS LON 98B4B0, recorded September 2012). It is for this reason that the cataloguer suggests the piece is unlikely to have had any connection with Ipswich, Suffolk
