Abstract
At the time of its issue the silver token coinage of 1811-1812 was believed to be worth considerably less than its face value. Twenty tokens have been analyzed by neutron activation analysis. Results are also given for tokens from the northwest of England for which no previous analyses are known. -- AATA
