1911 6 pence...

Does anyone know if there were souvenirs that hat had LONDON imprinted on the obverse of this coin? I was looking through an album of love tokens on British 3 and 6 pence and came across a few interesting finds. I possibly may be buying 6 or so. Any idea where I can get some info on British love tokens? Thanks. -Dan

    Speaking of unusual 6d and souveniers and such, I just found a little teeny "spiel marke" (play money?) coin that is made to look like an old-head Victoria sixpence, but it's tiny- smaller than a 3d or even a US 3c piece. Not silver. Just an interesting junkbox find.

    The only book I have on counterstamps on British coins only covers copper - sorry.
