Obv: A man smoking and holding a flagon of beer and keg, SR. GEORGE COOK MAYOR OF GARRAT AUGT. 24 96 around. Rev: SR. G. COOK FRUITERER GREEN-GROCER & OYSTER MERCHANT STANGATE LAMBETH, with bunch of turnips on top, cabbage at bottom, carrots and radishes on either side. Edge: Plain (not in collar).
Very Fine. Several cut marks and edge bumps. Scarce.
A specious token struck by Denton (note the D on the flagon) for sale to collectors. Featuring a seemingly jolly fellow, George Cook, one of the infamous ‘Mayors of Garratt’.
