Product details
This unique token coin has been in my collection since the 1970s. THERE IS NO OTHER CREIGHTON AND DENNIS TOKEN.
I came across it while living and working in Ixopo. Unique tokens from this region are in great demand. On page 35 of Milner Snell’s book “Tokens of the colony of Natal” he discusses this token and its background and notes that I have the only known piece in existence.
This fact is also noted by Hern in his 2009 book on South African tokens. The image of the coin listed here can be seen on page 71 of his book with a very low suggested value of R6,000. In his earlier 2004 book Hern valued it at R3,000.
This unique coin comes with a free copy of Milner Snell’s recent book mentioned above. This book is one of only ten published in colour and is numbered 05/10. For more on Milners book see: Milner Snell's book..
