bagerap Posted May 15, 2013 Report Share Posted May 15, 2013 Prompted by another post. This Eddie halfpenny love token is one of my favourites, and a work of art in its own right. (also a real problem to photograph properly) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Art1.2 Posted May 15, 2013 Report Share Posted May 15, 2013 That's a great love token. I really enjoy these. I'd made a bracelet of love tokens for my wife a number of years ago. Unfortunately it has disappeared somewhere along the line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottO Posted May 15, 2013 Report Share Posted May 15, 2013 that is a nice Edward one, not seen one that late. got this one at scrap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bagerap Posted May 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2013 Yes, you did very well with that. Scrap trays can be good value, the other coin you got along with this is pretty sweet too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted May 15, 2013 Report Share Posted May 15, 2013 Here's a love token that I got about ten years ago. can't remember how much it cost me but it was less than a tenner. Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bagerap Posted May 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2013 A very quick scan. Not all love tokens, one's for Onions another for Buttercup and yet another for Victoria's Jubilee, so best just say "Engraved Coins". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rsraghead Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 I wonder what tools they used to engrave those and how long it took them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bagerap Posted May 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 This partially illustrates the results of two types of engraving tool. What astounds me is that these were done freehand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rsraghead Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 That would be a hard feat to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
