Qcumbor Posted August 5, 2023 · Supporter Share Posted August 5, 2023 Below are two jetons (tokens), one in silver, the other in copper, both from the same dies, showing a die crack (through "DU ROY" at the top of the obverse) at different stages of evolution : the copper specimen must have been struck later in time Q 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
