Description
1694 Carolina Elephant Token, VF20
PROPRIETORS Reverse, W-12120
1694 TOKEN 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
midrange 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 47 of the 2014 Guide Book.Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 2ATW, PCGS# 73, Greysheet# 13)
