- Undated (ca. 1694) London Elephant Token. Hodder 2-B, W-12040. Rarity-2. GOD PRESERVE LONDON. Thick Planchet. Fine-12 (PCGS). A tinge of deep olive is evident on both sides of this otherwise antique copper example. Originally preserved surfaces are also well preserved for the assigned grade, only a few wispy handling marks and well scattered pits evident as the token rotates under a light. Softly defined in the center of the reverse, typical of the type, yet with the elephant well outlined and the peripheral lettering on the reverse more or less bold. Minor planchet flaws at the upper left and right reverse borders are noted. All in all, a pleasing PCGS-certified Fine for this popular English token type that has long been popular with American collectors. PCGS# 55. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
