Conder Token • Warwickshire DH 249 • Lady Godive/ Coventry Cross


It seems that my post for this token fell victim to the recent changeover here, so I'll post it again.
I would like you to compare it to the ebay item linked at the bottom of my post.  : )












Here's a link to an ebay auction for  a similar token which has been graded MS-65 by NGC.

I have collected U.S coins for many years, and then Civil War Tokens, but am now actively building a collection of Conder Tokens,
the coins that made the Industrial Revolution a whopping success. : )

Why should I compare it to the one on Ebay, when yours surpasses it by miles :D
But, serious. Ngc grades Conders so terribly :( If thats a MS65  I'll eat my hat...lol
Your strike on the obverse and reverse is far superior and no long or large hits or rubs.
Actually I don't see any on yours to speak of. Glad you reposted it and people can compare and see what
a high grade good looking strike looks like!

Larry,
  That's a very nice coin that you have got there.

I will eventually be getting photos of mine uploaded onto http://www.allnumis.com & onto a new world numismatic photo gallery that will be coming online very soon.

Aidan.
