The Cataloguers have taken every reasonable measure to ensure that all the lots are as described by Geoffrey Bell Auctions. Many of the lots are third party graded by PCGS, PMG, ICCS - We feel these are the most recognized grading companies in the industry.
Br 569 - CH MT-3, Richard Devins’ and Richard Bolton’s “Vegetable Worm Pastilles” advertising token, dated July 1, 1867. Because in size and appearance, with its obverse portrait of Victoria, this token closely resembles the Provincial one cent pieces of 1858 and 1859, its importation was apparently held up by customs officials and many pieces confiscated. EF or better with some remaining lustre.
This lot is part of the extensive George H. Thomson Collection.
