- Undated (ca. 1793-1795) Kentucky Token. W-8810. Rarity-5. Copper. LANCASTER Edge. AU-55 (PCGS). 174.2 grains. Attractive surfaces that are a pleasing blend of tan and medium brown. A small scratch on the rim at 2 o'clock on the obverse is the only mark to note. High quality in general and shows traces of luster. Produced in large quantities in England as part of the Conder token series, the Kentucky tokens of the early to mid 1790s derive their popular name from the letter K at the top of the pyramid on the reverse, a reference to Kentucky, which was admitted to the Union as the 15th state on June 1, 1792.
