THE LATE ROBINSON S. BROWN JR COLLECTION (Part V)
THE LATE ROBINSON S. BROWN JR COLLECTION (Part V)
In accordance with DNW house style, this collection has been catalogued by location rather than by denomination as in Dalton and Hamer; in this way pieces relative to each other and specific to a particular locality are easier to find. Tokens issued by named individuals are listed alphabetically, preceding those struck by manufacturers for specious gain. The opportunity has been taken to record the weight and die-axis of each piece, information which might not only help pinpoint pieces from the collection in future years should original tickets and
envelopes be discarded, but is also increasingly relevant to those who study the series in depth.
The lot number sequence follows on from Part IV (DNW, 3 October 2012). For more information on individual issues and issuers, see the Appendix at the back of the catalogue.
