Stack's Coin Galleries Auctions: Stack's December 2004 Auction is a Mail Bid Sale which closes Tuesday, December 14 at 3:00pm ET. There only appear to be 5 conders offered (lots 1394-1398) but the new(?) catalogue software that displays items is very fast and easy to use.

Conder Search Trivia: A look at last week's logs for this site show the following search terms were used to get here: conder tokens, british conder, tokens, conder token, provincial token-coinage, princess of wales conder token, seventeenth century tokens for sale, parys mountain coins, what is a conder token, stuart communion tokens, soho mint, token congress, and winged propeller restrike. The logs also show that 60% of the searchers used Google, 30% Yahoo and the remaining 10% other search engines including AOL, MSN, Altavista, and AskJeeves. I'm hoping most folks either found what they were looking for here, or information on where else they might look and I'm thinking those who are not already members should consider joining the Conder Token Collector's Club. Contact Gregg Moore (gregg.moore@comcast.net) for further membership info or visit the Conder Token Collector's Club web site for further CTCC info.
