Undated (c. 1694) London Elephant Token. Hodder 2-B, W-12040. “GOD PRESERVE LONDON” Legend. Thick Planchet. PCGS graded Mint State-62 Brown.

212.5 grains. Rarity-2. A beautiful satiny (too conservatively graded) example of this standard Thick Planchet London Elephant Token major type. It displays highly lustrous flashy even medium brown surfaces with attractive glossiness and has an especially frosty reverse. Nicely centered on both sides, free of problems other than the usual trivial planchet chips so common to this issue. Overall, a well struck immaculately preserved coin with outstanding eye-appeal, worthy of a premium, and meant for a quality conscious collector’s cabinet.

Provenance: From the Sydney F. Martin Collection. Earlier ex the Lawrence R. Stack Collection, November 2006.
