Description
1694 Carolina Elephant Token, VF20
PROPRIETORS Reverse, W-12120
1694 1/2 P Carolina Elephant Token, PROPRIETORS, VF20 PCGS. CAC.
Hodder 2-F, W-12120, R.6. Ex: Steinberg. A single obverse,
unlettered with a simple yet striking depiction of an elephant,
gives this class of tokens its name. Only one variety, associated
with a London shield reverse, is common, while all reverses linked
to American colonies are rare. This Carolina token was struck from
a corrected reverse that changed the misspelling PROPRIETERS to
PROPRIETORS with an O stamped over the erroneous E. This VF20 piece
has the broad details of the elephant remaining, though parts of
the ear are weak. Medium-brown surfaces are slightly porous but
minimally marked with a hint of violet overtone. Listed on page 43
of the 2024 Guide Book.Ex: Long Beach Signature (Heritage, 9/2013), lot 6202; Gibney Family Collection / Central States Signature (Heritage, 4/2021), lot 4963; James E. Blake Collection / ANA Signature (Heritage, 8/2023), lot 3347.
