- Rare 1796 Myddelton Token in Copper 1796 Myddelton token. Breen-1073, W-8900. Copper. Proof-58 (PCGS). 169.0 grains. Scarcer than the silver by a considerable margin, a copper Myddelton token offers some insight into what this piece could have looked like as a circulating halfpenny. This one is deep olive brown and steel with superb detail and attractive reflectivity. No notable issues are seen, just some faint hairlines and some very trivial signs of handling. The eye appeal is very pretty for the grade, and whatever light friction this piece has endured has not affected its beauty. Provenance: From the Archangel Collection. Earlier, from Stack’s sale of the Laird Park Collection, May 1976, lot 150; Stack’s sale of April 1971, lot 603. PCGS Population: 2; 6 finer. PCGS# 646 Click here for certification details from PCGS.
