[QUOTE="HandsomeToad, post: 384303, member: 12965"]That was in the write-up but it is a plain edge 1155 n.d. variety. I agree with the price thingy but it isn't the Redbook that makes this so desirable, it's the fact that it is associated with the US, whereas, most Condor's are mostly UK related. The more peeps that want something, makes for a larger market and hence, higher prices (aka: supply & demand). I personally love the Condor Tokens and already have quite a few and am always looking for a great deal on others, which, the seller of this one had many more but almost all of them were in AU/MS condition and ones that are rarely seen on Ebay and many had planchet errors, so they went higher than I was willing to spend on a non-US related Condor but I would have loved to have acquired all of them for my little Condor Collection. :thumb: Ribbit :) Ps: This past weekend I also picked-up a 1795 York Minster & Clifford's Tower York Halfpenny with an edge inscription "YORK BUILT A.M. 1223 CATHEDRAL REBUILT A.D. 1075" in almost uncirculated condition.
