Here's an unusual Conder Token from Wales.
1795 Conder Token with Raised Edge Lettering • Wales, Glamorganshire 3a
I bought this token primarily because of its unusual edge lettering which is not incuse, but raised.
This token variety is rated 'Fairly Common.'
Actually, the lettering stands out within a wide groove in its edge.
I'll soon add photos of its edge lettering which seems to have been applied
to planchet before striking in a loose-fitting collar.
Estimated grade is MS-63 RB.
