This is the second example I have of this York 63 issue.

It's a new arrival.  : )





I have collected U.S coins for many years, and then Civil War Tokens, but am now actively building a collection of Conder Tokens,
the coins that made the Industrial Revolution a whopping success. : )

This one is spectacular!  Think I saw one of your other posts with this piece, or your other piece, on CT or CU.

Larry,
  I do have one of these in my collection.

Yours is one amazing coin.

Well done on the cool pick-up though.

Aidan.

Not only do I love the condition of that token, but the rendered perspective of Clifford's Tower is attractive in itself. The vast majority of pieces tend to be very 2D and make no attempts of creating any depth of field, this one conveys the impression of height that often would be lacking on such pieces.
