<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Hiddendragon, post: 7978004, member: 25270&quot;]I came across an advertising token on eBay that I&#039;m interested in. It&#039;s supposedly from the 1880s in either the UK or Australia and is the size of a British penny. It doesn&#039;t say anything about a denomination and just advertises a product. I&#039;m wondering if these sort of things were used as money or if not, what were they for? </p><p><br /></p><p>I know more specific info would help but I just don&#039;t want to share a link or photo on the off chance that someone else will see it and decide they have to have it. Basically I don&#039;t really collect things that aren&#039;t used as money but this has a motif that fits in my collection. It&#039;s kind of expensive and I&#039;m trying to talk myself into or out of getting it. I also can&#039;t find any sold examples or anything to give me an idea of the real value.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
