Long Beach show pickup

coinsarefun

I just got back and took a few quick images and wanted to share.

I arrived late today, around 1:30pm. I usually make it early in the mornings but had to get a few
things done first.

Made my usual submissions at PCGS. Showed David Hall a few coins.
and headed over to the NGC table to submit some other tokens and medals I had.


I have never been to the LB show so late in the afternoon, but to me it seemed quite slow
as there was no wait at NGC and only one person in front of me at PCGS.

The floor was wide open instead of shoulder to shoulder as it had been in the past.
I may have just been lucky and picked a slow time of the day

I went to the dealer where I was to pick up my new Conder and browsed very quickly
and left.

This is the Oddfellows Token minted in 1795 showing the head of the British King joined with the head of an ass.

I think its quite fitting for today's times, don't you

That is a fun piece! The pics are quite nice also.

Was King George a democrat?

Nice token ... great pickup

That's not what they refer to in coinage terms as a "MULE", is it?!

Thanks for sharing such an unusual piece. Is there any significance to the apparent maypole dance on the reverse?

Tom ..
looks like King George's head on the top of the pole ... " Tree of Liberty"
That was probably the cause for celebration !!
