- Great Britain. Sussex--Chichester. 1795 Queen Elizabeth / Britannia Halfpenny Token. D&H-17b. Copper. MS-65 BN (PCGS).
164.9 grains. With the edge inscription WE PROMISE TO PAY THE BEARER ONE CENT, this planchet was apparently edged and prepared for use as a 1795 Talbot, Allum & Lee cent, Fuld-1, W-8620. It was, however, eventually struck as the British Conder token offered here. A fully defined piece with smooth Gem surfaces that retain flashes of original faded pink mint color. Otherwise warmly toned in iridescent olive-brown. An interesting die break in the upper left obverse field is as made.
Provenance: From the Sydney F. Martin Collection. Purchased via eBay, September 2001.
