Title: Re: token Post by: Andre on September 25, 2018, 09:27:49 PM Brilliant mate,my first one.
I’m going to look into it,cheers for that Title: Re: token Post by: probono on September 26, 2018, 09:25:33 PM I found my first of these this year too :) - although I think mine was a little later.
The family who made this basically cornered the markets for over a hundred years in accounting token making :) Title: Re: token Post by: Andre on September 27, 2018, 05:47:16 PM I find incredible how such fragile thing holds so much history...
Thinking that was in a clod for hundreds of years Title: Re: token Post by: Val Beechey on September 30, 2018, 02:10:03 AM I thought the same when I found one Andre. Also how did it stay whole, they are so thin, just like egg shells. Squeeze it too hard and it would just fall apart.
They mostly don’t have such good detail either. Nicely found and saved. Title: Re: token Post by: Andre on October 16, 2018, 03:18:14 PM Thanks Val
