[QUOTE="HandsomeToad, post: 384360, member: 12965"]The website I listed (Notre Dame) discusses it: "Breen suggests the Kentucky tokens were popular and circulated throughout the American states, but gives no evidence for this statement. Bowers suspects the coins were primarily made for British collectors as part of the popular British token series we now call the "Conder" series, after James Conder who first classified these tokens in 1798." However, that still has nothing to do with what I said: "the fact that it is associated with the US, whereas, most Condor's are mostly UK related" What does Birmingham to do with the US? What does Leeks have to do with the US? What does Dublin have to do with the US? What does Sheffield have to do with the US? What does Liverpool have to do with the US? What does Bungay have to do with the US? What does Edinburgh have to do with the US? What does Manchester have to do with the US? What does Norwich have to do with the US? But then, what does Kentucky, Rhode Island, Virginia, Vermont, North Carolina, New York, Massachusetts, Maine, Maryland, New Hampshire, Delaware, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Georgia, & Connecticutt have to do with the UK? Maybe that will help you to understand what "association" means? Ribbit :) Ps: There are several other Condors/UK minted tokens that are [U]associated[/U] with the US and they also fetch high prices: George Washington Tokens. IOHN HOWARD muled with Liberty & Commerce from Talbot's New York Token. Franklin Press Token Etc....[/QUOTE]
