(of course you may have problems finding interested buyers) One problem is there doesn&#039;t appear to be a lot of references on these.&nbsp; Seaby seems to have published a four volume set on these tokens back in 1988 by Michael Mitchiner but I haven&#039;t been able to locate any copies or prices for the books.&nbsp; I haven&#039;t searched but the best source for the books may be the ANA Library.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
