La Ceiba ½ Real Token Sextet, Ceiba merchants issued all six of these 21 -22mm brass ½ Real tokens, likely in the first decade of the 20th century. Boldly dated "1904", the first is Rulau Atl-17 of M. Mejia; it was labeled as copper, and thus given a separate listing as such in a preliminary manuscript, but is almost certainly heavily-circulated oxidized brass in our opinion. Similar but uniface, of better style and nicer at full VF is a Meija y H example listed by Rulau Atl -18. Atl -23 of R. Rodriquez in pleasant Fine+ is likely rarer. Vaccaro Bros. issues of 1904 and 1906 are shown as Rulau Atl-25 and Atl-27; both are bold and F-VF. Sixth is an AVF D. Warren example of Rulau Atl-29 description; collectors might enjoy noticing other issues by "Warren" within this presentation listed under an address in Ruatan. Interesting group.From The Dana Roberts Collection and Study Group
Estimate: 500-800 USD
