    Description

    1792 Birmingham Halfpenny Conder Token.
    Here's a rare one!
    Conder tokens are named after
    James Conder
    who was an early
    collector
    and cataloguer of these
    tokens
    .
    Building on the work of Conder and a few other intermediary reference works, the definitive and exhaustive work on attributing Conder tokens used by modern collectors is that of Dalton and Hamer.
    Each token is identified based on one of four large geographic regions (
    England
    ,
    Anglesey
    and
    Wales
    ,
    Scotland
    , and
    Ireland
    ), then further by
    county
    .
    Within the county of issue, each unique combination of
    obverse and reverse
    design is assigned a number (referred to as the D&H number), and variations in edge lettering are further differentiated by a lower case letter following the number designation. In general, the tokens are organized within each county such that
    pennies
    are listed first (lowest D&H numbers), then
    halfpennies
    , and finally
    farthings
    (highest D&H numbers).
    It is also quite common for collectors to refer to a token by the specific city, business, or series of the issue within the larger county category.
