Trinidad & Tobago, copper stampee private merchant token for barber Francois Declos, incuse F D countermark (1854-74) on a British copper 1/2 penny 1870, rare, encapsulated NGC Token VF 35 BN, ex-Byrne (stated inside slab). KM-Tn1.1. 25 mm. Countermarked side of coin (and countermark itself) appear to be the slab grade, whereas the other side is nearly smooth in center (due to the countermark and further circulation), still with good legends, desirable pedigree. According to Byrne, tokens like this were unofficial and circulated at 2 cents. Pedigreed to the Ray Byrne collection.
