Discover rare early New York tokens and the stories they tell about a bustling city and its merchants.

This excerpt surveys copper tokens issued by New York shopkeepers in the late 18th century. It explains why these little pieces mattered to locals, and how collectors recognize them by design, edge inscriptions, and wear. You’ll see the Motts token from 1789 and the Talbot, Allum & Lee pieces from 1794 and 1795, including rare edge details and Birmingham-produced dies.

The pages connect coins to daily life in New York, showing how a merchant’s name, address, and craft turned a token into a cherished relic. It also introduces the idea of “mules” — pairs of dies not meant to belong together — and describes where these pieces circulated and why some are much rarer than others.

Descriptions of obverse and reverse devices for Motts and for Talbot, Allum & Lee tokens.

Notes on shop locations, business history, and the social cache of those pieces.

Details about rare variants and mule varieties, and how they differ by date and edge.

Context on the 18th‑century token market and what collectors look for today.

Ideal for readers of numismatics and American urban history who want a concise window into early token culture.
