This is a halfpenny token of Great Britain that I picked up on Ebay not that long ago. I think everyone realises why I had to have it, with that lovely lion striding across the obverse.
Unfortunately, it is pitted. This token is probably nearly all copper, and easily damaged. Still, it is quite a handsome coin for $2.00. Someday I think I would like to pick up a better specimen of it, if I can find one for a decent price.
