Description

Great Britain--Middlesex. Undated (1790s) Am I Not a Man and a Brother Political Token. D&H-1037. Copper. Lettered Edge. 29 mm. MS-64 BN (NGC).

This is a satiny, smooth looking near-Gem with hard, tight surfaces. Handsome medium brown patina overall, intermingled autumn-brown highlights are discernible on both sides as the token rotates under a light. A few stray marks and faint carbon flecks do not detract. British Conder tokens of this type, and with similar obverse motifs, are often included in American collections of Hard Times tokens alongside examples of HT-81 and HT-82, the popular kneeling slave types.
