<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Catbert, post: 417325, member: 12718&quot;]I think I might dive into collecting Conder Tokens and am considering the 2004 edition of D&amp;H. The only thing that brings me pause about buying the book is the price - $188!</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Here is my first Conder token bought recently. If you have some, post a pic or two.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><img src="http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh297/IndianaCatbert/1795%20Pidcock%20Conder%20Token/PidcockToken2.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><img src="http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh297/IndianaCatbert/1795%20Pidcock%20Conder%20Token/PidcockToken015.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>This is a 1795 Half Penny Middlesex (England) DH414 Pidcocks &quot;Exibition&quot; (note mispelling, no &quot;h&quot;). Pidcock&#039;s show was one of several popular travelling menageries or wild beast shows that drove through towns. Since people didn&#039;t travel much then, this was a source of entertainment. Pidcock was one that owned exotic animals and this token advertised his show while also serving as small change in circulation[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
