Hi there I am new to the forum I am looking for information around a copper Liverpool condor token from 1793(I believe the date to be this but is a bit worn).
It has Britannia struck on one side and an image of a ship struck on the other side.

Also - a c ondo r is a bird.
The UK tokens 1787 to 1797 are called C onde r as it was James Conder who catalogued them.

Leith is located near Edinburgh.
I picked this one up very recently;
.
I bought it off an old man at a fair in my home town of Wanganui - for 20 New Zealand Dollars.
He was very happy to get it a new home - in MY collection!
