Sylvester,as an interesting sideline to the English coin series,I collect Traders' Tokens.Over the past few years,the following pieces have come my way into my collection; Bridgewater N.D. 1/4d. Robert Haviland. Bristol 1660 1/4d. Town. Gloucester N.D. 1/4d. Thomas Cooke. Norwich 1667 1/4d. Town. Shrewsbury 1663 1/2d. Constantine Overton. Southwold 1667 1/2d. Town. Worcester N.D. 1/2d.

Did you know that Dixon, Noonan & Webb (www.dnw.uk) is going to be selling some in their March 16th auction? I'n not sure how extensive the sale is because I haven't looked at them. I don't collect them.
