    A few weeks ago I visited my LCS, and I'm just now getting around to going through what I bought. Here are a few highlights - things that are unusual, valuable or just something I've never seen before.

    And here are some interesting tokens I picked up as well.

    1791 France dizain de l'abbe Rochon. I don't know if you'd consider this a coin or a token or what. Apparently during the French Revolution they melted down church bells to make money and that's where this comes from. They seem moderately valuable.

    1793 Conder token: Wainfleet half penny

    1830 Upper Canada Perrins Bros. half penny token. This one seems rather valuable.

    1889 Grand Army of the Republic medal/token. I couldn't find an exact match for this in Google so I'm not sure what to make of it.

    Yes, very nice! I particularly like the New Brunswick 20 cent coin, and the 1791 "Metal de Cloche" coin/token.
    Also, impressive moustache on that Polish 5 zlotych!
