Interesting fact
The Token ½ Penny coin from 1731 is considered a rare and valuable collector's item, with only a few known examples remaining in existence. One of these coins was sold at an auction in 2017 for £16,000 (approximately $21,000 USD). This coin's rarity and value are due to its age, historical significance, and the fact that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in the United Kingdom.
