Hardcover. Condition: New. 264 pages : ill., maps ; 31 cm. The towns of issue are listed alphabetically and the descriptions of them were taken from contemporary directories and guides. Issuers were carefully researched in those and other publications, including directories. Contemporary newspaper accounts and adverts are used e…xtensively throughout the book. There is an extensive bibliography, and seven pages of indexes. There are concordances with Davis, and Christopher Eimer's Medallic Portraits of the Duke of Wellington. There are appendices covering associated items, edges (illustrated) and maps showing the geographical distribution of the places of issue of the silver and copper tokens. This is the standard reference work on this series and is also much used in Canada, the USA and Europe. This book was five years in the writing and was our response to the frustration we felt at the varieties not properly described, or not illustrated in the pages of The Nineteenth Century Token Coinage of Great Britain, Ireland, the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man by W J Davis. It was inspired by an American numismatist Colonel Axel Wahlstedt, who wrote: 'It is not sufficient that a coin-catalogue is chronologically arranged, so that the different coin-types follow each other in the same way and in the same succession. A scientific coin-catalogue must also give an account of the economic conditions that form the background to the activity of the monetary workshops. Thus placed in their natural environment the coins can contribute to make a picture of the pulsating life they once assisted to maintain' in Transactions of the International Numismatic Congress 1936.

Hardcover. Condition: New. 366 pages ; 31 cm. Weights made in silver, copper, brass, and glass for gold and silver coins. Covers English, Scottish and Irish coin-weights for English, Scottish, Portuguese, French and Spanish coins. Information is given on early weights, 16th-century, round and square weights of James VI and Charl…es I, weights by named makers, weights of monarchs from Charles II to George V. Countermarks on weights. Adjusted weights. Weights for silver coins. There are 9 pages of indexes on countermarks, denominations, materials, makers and sellers, and a general index. This work was begun because there were no books on the subject available when we needed it in the 1970s when we began to collect con-weights. Little was known about them, so we had to develop a system of cataloguing the weights that we collected. It was some time before we realised that we realised that weights were mostly issued or sold as sets, or part sets. The book was more than a decade in the writing. The list of collectors, dealers, institutions and museums we had to acknowledge was more than a hundred, including the Bank of England, encompassing almost everybody who is anybody in the Museum and collecting world.
