This book was released on 2017-11-23 with total page 426 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Tradesmen's Tokens of the Eighteenth Century Another dilemma to be met was the placing of those pieces with incorrect edges. In many cases, artists' proofs were doubtless struck upon already existing Tokens, the edge inscription of which would not agree with that upon the face, this, of course, was a matter of no moment; but then on the other hand large numbers of Tokens were issued with edges which were either purposely vague, such as Current Every Where, or what is worse, directly opposed to the legend on their face. Under these circumstances it has been decided to disregard the edges altogether, and to place the Tokens according to the obverse or reverse legend, putting the correct edge (when known) first, and the other edges to supplementary numbers, giving also a table of the various edges at the end of the book.

Book Tokens Traders of Kent in the Seventeenth Eighteenth Nineteenth Centuries

Download or read book Tokens Traders of Kent in the Seventeenth Eighteenth Nineteenth Centuries written by David Villanueva and published by . This book was released on 2015-10-29 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Provincial Token-Coinage Coins traditionally contained the value of the metal they were made from, less a nominal amount for the monarch and mint master and could only be produced by Royal decree. By the sixteenth century the penny and its fractions had been reduced in size by inflation becoming inconveniently small to manufacture and use. The general population resorted to using token coins containing less than their intrinsic value of metal until the monarch provided sufficient usable coinage for the needs of trade. Trade tokens were issued in three distinct periods, the first during the seventeenth century, 1648-1672. The second in the eighteenth century, 1787-1801 and finally the nineteenth century, 1811-15. As well as being collectable, like coins, tokens issued by tradesmen contain personal information such as name, location, trade and even spouse's forename initial in many cases and will be of interest to genealogists as well as family and local historians. Metal detectorists are a large group of regular finders of these tokens, who will also be looking for a means of identifying their metal detecting finds. Available Sources A number of eminent numismatists (including Atkins, Boyne, Conder, Dalton, Davis, Dickinson, Hamer, Pye and Williamson) have studied these tokens and produced extensive catalogues, generally covering the whole of a series. Until now the only solution to identification was to wade through these catalogues, which can be very expensive to buy, new or used. These catalogues can be borrowed free from the Library but there are few copies in circulation and waiting times can be lengthy. Many of the catalogues were compiled in the 19th and early 20th centuries so some have been scanned and are available online. The problem with scanning old texts is that the scanner has no real comprehension of what is written and so records what it perceives and the result can be gobbledegook! A further problem is that genealogical information and full token details have been abandoned in more recent catalogues to keep the printing costs and cover price down. This serves the collector well but disadvantages not only the family and local historian but also the finder of excavated tokens where only parts of the detail may be visible. Tokens and Traders of Kent The nature of tokens is that they circulated very near to their place of issue so that the merchant concerned could exchange or redeem them for regal coins. While 18th and 19th century tokens did travel far and wide, especially those redeemable in several major cities, they remained common in their home county. Seventeenth century tokens, those of London excepted, generally only circulated within a seven mile radius of their place of issue. Seven miles was the typical distance between markets where the tokens would have been accepted. This book is written for the casual finder, family and local historian of Kent. It catalogues all Kent token details available including all genealogical and local information recorded in earlier tomes (details of several taverns, inns, public houses and hotels have been updated). In all some 600 recorded seventeenth and around 50 eighteenth and nineteenth century Kent tokens are included, many of which are illustrated. An illustrated section on popular token designs aids identification and the tokens are listed alphabetically by surname within the alphabetical list of place names. If you need to identify a token, use what you can see on the token to quickly scan the appropriate listings and providing it is a Kent token, you are sure to find it!
