Undated (Circa 1694) London Elephant Token. Hodder 2-B, W-12040. GOD PRESERVE LONDON. Thick Planchet. AU-50 (PCGS). 217.2 grains. Deep golden-brown throughout. A scattering of marks is seen, most notable of these on the obverse rim and into the field at 6 o'clock. Some faint blemishes and other marks are apparent under low magnification, including a diagonal planchet striation, as struck, that runs across the center of the shield on the reverse. A pleasing coin to the naked eye despite some minor distractions.
