Conder token advice...

Posts: 1,528 ✭✭✭
I recently stumbled upon the world of conder tokens and I am in love.
Just looking to get some basic advice on them. I know the D&H guide is probably the best resource, but some of the more common varieties, slabbed, seem to be reasonably priced at around ms-62 and up.
Just looking to eventually get a couple I really like...any input you guys might have would be awesome. Thanks!

First advice: go to your profile and enable Private Messages, so folks can contact you.
Second advice: for 20 bucks, JamesMurray is offering the D&H in digital format. Maybe the same information is compiled elsewhere on the web for free- I dunno- just started looking into this myself- but I thought $20 was a good deal instead of paying a princely sum for a printed copy of the book. I bought one of his digital "flipping books" and it's pretty good. I would've rather had it in Adobe Acrobat form, perhaps, but so what.
I have on my site a video and several pages of articles written by top dealers and collectors regarding Conder Tokens.
The video is long but contains a vast amount of knowledge.
In a very short nutshell they are what our Hard Times Tokens are to the US.
A shortage of small change forced private companies to mint their own. Same as US Hard Times tokens.
On my site click on the Hard Times token icon and you can read about them as well. Also written by major authors and collectors.
