[QUOTE="ryanbrooks, post: 944340, member: 10924"][b]1694 Elephant Token[/b] Hey everyone, Here is another Elephant Token. This one is interesting though... the damage you see on both the obverse and reverse is what I believe to be PRE-MINT damage, NOT post! Why? Well if you look at the close up picture I took, you will see the PRE of the word PRESERVE lightly printed on the coin. If it were post mint damage, the lettering would not be there.
