Birmingham 1811 shilling token rev Marth.jpg

This token is not considered a Conder token, being issued after Conder wrote his book, but is often included with them as part of the vast array of British private tokens issued before the Royal mint was reformed in 1816. This token was struck for the workhouse in Birmingham; conditions there were grimmer than anything described in Dickens' novels.

Recorded mintage: unknown.

Specification: silver.

Catalog reference: Warwickshire D-8.
