LIST #43
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Hi Friends----Well, some time has passed since the DNW sale of part two of the Spence holdings---and time
for some observations. Peter Preston-Morley, writing in the CTCC Journal, put it very well---though the
money is tighter on both sides of the Atlantic, the sale brought some nice prices. Certain areas, such as antislavery, Pidcock’s, Spence, hanging men, etc, brought very high prices. Also found in the sale were many
rarities, and they, too were hotly contested. The balance of the sale certainly had some high quality pieces,
but there were only so many Pounds or Dollars to go around, and there were some lots that went for bargain
prices---or at least relatively so. Many of the tokens in the sale went back to Longman, Lincoln, or before.
Many were purchased from Richard Dalton in 1910, and some came from the Davis sale in 1901. Thus many
of the tokens represented were in private hands for 100 years or more. Even large groups of tokens were
often special, with varieties not usually found.
I was able to buy many lots, and many of them contained pieces that were far better than the average piece
seen in commerce. They needed nothing---wonderful color, wonderful surfaces, much red and luster seen.
Thus you will find on this list a good many pieces that are special, over and above the provenance--Having purchased a number of collections, and attended the Spence sale, bought many tokens at Coin-Ex,
and visited many dealers, I currently have a really nice selection of pieces in superb condition.
Tokens from the Spence sale will be listed with an *, usually before the selection. All pieces from the
sale will be sent to you with all old tickets and envelopes.
If you need something not listed, please ask---I have over 1000 in stock, and only 200 on this list They will
be offered as space permits in the future. Some shall be put on the web site. Enjoy the list--Bill

19th CENTURY PENNY & HALFPENNY TOKENS
PAGE EIGHT
These interesting tokens were not saved by collectors at the time they were issued like their 18th century
counterparts. Very high grade pieces are thus all quite scarce. As well, many that were in circulation received
edge dings and other scrapes, due to their large size. Issued primarily by large industry, they are a reminder of
how industry coped with a lack of change as the industrial revolution gained momentum.
Listed by Withers numbers, from his wonderful new book on 19th Century tokens, and by Davis numbers.
