Let's see your exonumia!

That is an outstanding c/st. I think I saw it online but did not stop to consider all the background. To have all his markings so neatly lined up is quite special. I do have a couple of the more common cutler's marks, ROBINSON being one, if I recall. I also have one on an early penny that was also counterstamped with the LLOYD'S PUBLICATIONS counterstamp.

A few more for tonight. First up Arizona:


AZ140a, aluminum, 22mm. Cunningham records a period after the ARIZ but I've never seen one with it.


AZ140b, aluminum, 28mm, Cunningham records a period after the ARIZ but I've never seen one with it.


AZ150a, aluminum, 22mm.


AZ150b, aluminum, 28mm. I've seen this token slabbed before - very much a waste of money.


AZ870b, Williams AFB, 25mm. Holder said "ex Curto." Curto was the first to attempt to catalog military trade tokens.


AZ1000, brass, 28mm. Unlistedm minted sometime after 1982. One of my favorites.

Here's my Arkansas collection:


AR30c, brass, 28mm


AR100d, aluminum, 34mm.


AR130c, aluminum, 22mm. Cunningham records this token as orange, and my picture sure looks orange but the token is really almost a pink color.

 

And some from the Overseas bases:


Germany (GR)1410c, brass, 27mm


GR1470f, brass, 32mm, possible unlisted variety no star under STUTTGART.


Great Britian (GB)100, brass, hexagon, 25mm Cunningham lists this token as an octagon.


Iceland (IC)90c, brass, 21mm


JP2760a, aluminum, 36mm


Korea (KR)830b, Kimpo Air Base, plated brass, 18mm


KR3120a, Walker Hill, plated brass, 21mm. XXIV Corps, Commanding Generals' Mess, Camp Horn, Danang, Vietnam; first used at Walker Hill; varieties exist, probably from restriking tokens for use in Vietnam; some were found in Korean post exchanges as late as 1962; they were being withdrawn in favor of the FEES and JCE tokens because, being plated they were jamming the counterfeit detectors.


KR3120c, plated brass, 18mm

 

Found some cool stuff today. I've never seen an encased Canadian large cent







The token from a Russian mint set



I might have to start looking for these now that I have a starter set of rabies vaccine tags

 

@H8_modern nice pieces. Why is the lower half of the Russian token in English?

 

Because Russians teach their kids English.......

And also to 'net' the American market......

 

The USSR was selling mint sets to the decadent west?

 

I want one.

 

Mainly the 2nd part

 

Good stuff! heres a really neat socalled dollar

 

I like that one, 49er. I have a large collection of numismatic related medals, coins, elongates, counterstamps, etc. I never saw this one before.

Hi Bruce, thanks. you should post up some pics. I would love to see some of your stuff

 

Heres an awesome medal I bought this year. From Medallic art co. they were actually minting them when I ordered this... heres a few pics to check out . Also a medal commemorating the opening of the Ghent canal...

 

I have a collection of about 700 pieces of numismatic-related exonumia, most not photographed, but here's a few.

Here's a couple more, 49er. I'll try to post more later. The BR&M counterstamp is mine, struck on a cull Large Cent. I don't know who issued the "Coins Wanted" stickered coin.

Bruce

 

Maybe I should photo my BR&M coins...

 

Lots of exonumia can be had for very affordable prices because it's not Morgan dollars. I have over 300 military trade tokens and have photos of about 1/3 of them.

Here's a random token...(I do love my tokens!)
