    Description

    The British garrison of Gibraltar suffered intermittent small change shortages throughout its history. Gibraltar has been under fourteen sieges since medieval times, and it can be tough for the sovereign nation of a colony to ship coins there when it's under siege.
    These tokens were produced by the local craftsman James Spittles to be used by the British soldiers and other people in the small territory. The one and two quarto denominations are identical except for size and weight. They can be quite valuable.
    Free shipping and comes mailed securely in an envelope.
    Thank you for your business and have a blessed day.
