12 sided jetons

Here's a pair of 12 sided jetons issued in 1844 on the death of General Bertrand who was a companion of Napoleon on St. Helena.
Both are 25mm or just about 1 inch in size.

Unlisted in the major references but one I believe was contemporary to Bertrand's passing.

Bramsen 2014.

Those are cool jetons, Vern

Since they're not listed, are they pretty rare?

Cool dodecagon!

The first one is pretty rare I think Auld. I've never seen another one and the Bramsen 2014 is only the third or fourth I've seen over the years. There's another variety (Br. 2015) that's sort of a mixture of these two.
