Dalton & Hammer question

Where in the book do they explain their rarity code? Like R, RR, RRR, Scare, common etc.?

    That is where I got mine, great seller! Other that not having the rarity info, what do you think of the book?

    Great reference book for the tokens. They should update it with color photos.

    I have suggested to Dr Sriro that his CD is a good start on an digital updating of D&H. I need to get a hold of Robbie Brown and see if it would be possible to use his collection for additional photos for a digital version. (Robbie has over 4,000 of the varieties.)

    Dalton and Hamer never defined their rarity scale. Usually it is linked to Sheldons scale as being RRR = R7 (4 - 12 known) , RR = R6 (13 - 30 known), R= R5 (31 - 75 known), Scarce = R4 (76 - 200 pieces)

    Fancy that -- having a scale you don't define ... sounds like ACG! image
