    Cómo se supone que se identifica un token? Con un nº de catálogo?

    Sobre el último, son 5 chelines.

    Williams Brothers direct supply stores was a grocery at 328 Hackney Road, London E2 in 1921. The nearby Nags Head at 324 was already there in 1921 and still has the same name.

    This is a series of dividend tickets. They would be given as proof of purchase, to be exchanged once a year for a bonus depending on profit and the value of the tokens.
