The Token book 3 is double that, I've been toying with buying it but I don't think the amount I'd use it would justify the cost
-
The Token Book volume one had a re print in 2022 and is available on the Galata website. Priced £65

There are some lovely examples there, I particularly like the whitefriars one with it's rich chocolate tone. I've started to collect the brass examples of the Birmingham series, 5 so far plus one that turned out to be a gilt copper! Have you considered collecting the Gloucester penny series? Being that little bit larger makes for some excellent detail

A couple of years ago I bought a job lot at an auction of over 100 of these early Indian sub-continent coins for very little money. I suspect in the modern age of metal detectors they are turning up in huge numbers in India. They were low value when they were made and have remained that way!
Many thanks Paddy. I thought as much! I've found nothing out about the Colonel either

Thanks Paddy. I thought that would be the case when I could find nothing out regarding Col Leigh

Hello all, it's a long while since I've posted. This little coin was bought with others I wanted in a job lot and I'm trying to find out more about the finder Lt Col Leigh and if it's a known or famous hoard that was found. I'm assuming it isn't as I can't find any information about it. Any help or pointers will be greatly appreciated

I believe the bids are automatically cancelled as the item is pulled so it gives the impression (wrongly) that no bids where placed

I'm watching out of interest but won't be bidding

It also makes you wonder what else is still waiting to be found
-
I've just read this and thought it may be of interest to others...

Coin envelope of O.P. Eklund
Whilst this is for a token I know he wrote a number of books on coins so thought it may be of interest
