Message:: [QUOTE="Duncan Doenitz, post: 2120710, member: 74025"]Okay, one confusing thing to realize with the Yankee Robinson tokens... a design is sometimes considered the obverse and sometimes the same die is the reverse. The Indian Head designs with their sometimes subtle differences are listed as reverse designs, paired with the triad designs, obverse when paired with the Indian Heads and reverse when paired with images of Robinson. Here's the obverse of OH 165EZ-10a...[ATTACH=full]401921[/ATTACH] And the reverse, known as die #1034...[ATTACH=full]401924[/ATTACH] The little clip in the planchet is a nice bonus, not very common on the Yankee Robinson tokens, which are of pretty good quality, often even including a reeded edge. -Dunc EDIT:  I should add, the triad designs are described as "hand pointing left" or "hand pointing right", but the finger always points down. I think of them as "knuckles left" or "knuckles right".[/QUOTE]
