Description
ND 19th Century, London, Dunn & Co, Unofficial Farthing Token, W.2480
A lovely example of this very rare gilt brass unofficial farthing. Lightly worn and well detailed with nearly full original colour. Rarely found in such high grade.

R: H.M.G.M. QUEEN VICTORIA. Young head bust left.
This token is listed in Withers, The Token Book. 2 as W.2480 and is rated RR=Very Rare. I would grade this token Very Fine (Sheldon AU50) but I have provided high-resolution close up photos so you can decide on a grade for yourself.
For uncertified coins I provide a grading opinion using both the UK descriptive system and the Sheldon scale (based on ANA Grading Standards and/or PCGS Photograde) which will be better known to my US customers. I offer a grading opinion as a courtesy, but please examine the high resolution close up photos carefully and decide on a grade for yourself.
