1820 North West Company Token, VF30
Brass, W-9250, Holed As Issued

1820 TOKEN North West Company Token, Brass, VF30 NGC. Breen-1083, W-9250, R.4. A mid-range representative of the challenging 1820 North West Company brass token. Moderately worn and holed as usual through the letter K of TOKEN, with golden-brown and brassy surfaces that show the typical scattering of light marks and suggestions of having been unearthed, the state of a majority of survivors. Walter Breen describes this company trade token, originally struck in Birmingham by John Walker & Co. and later shipped to the Canadian-influenced area that is now Oregon, as the only issue to qualify "as a colonial circulating medium for the Pacific Northwest." Listed on page 74 of the 2022 Guide Book.
Ex: Long Beach Signature (Heritage, 9/2019), lot 4571.
