1781 (ca. 1820) North American Token. W-13980. AU-55 (PCGS).，Glossy copper-rose and golden-brown surfaces are exceptionally smooth in an example of this conditionally challenging type. Boldly defined throughout, as well, it is difficult for us to imagine a more attractive and inviting type candidate for the North American token. Likely produced in Ireland sometime between 1810 and 1820, examples of this type found their way to North America, where they saw widespread circulation in Canada. All known examples were struck from deliberately damaged or worn dies to simulate older coins and thereby facilitate the types acceptance in commercial channels. This is a remarkably well preserved survivor that is fully deserving of the impressive Choice AU grade from PCGS.，，
