Scotland.

Of this kingdom there is but the one token described; and this is very surprising, as the large cities of Edinburgh, Glasgow, Perth, Aberdeen, etc., must have needed small change, and there seems to have been no special law in Scotland against their issue, any more than in England and Ireland. The Black Money of the Scottish Kings, and the patent farthings of James I. and Charles I., seem, however, to have met the requirements of the trade of that period.

Shropshire.

THE bulk of the tokens of this county are halfpennies and farthings, but there are as many as thirteen pennies, an unusual proportion, surpassed, however, by the adjoining border county of Chester, which boasts of twenty-four or more.

Bridgenorth was the only town in the county that issued tokens in a corporate capacity.

In the former edition eighty tokens were described-of these four have been withdrawn, as they belong to other counties, and the present list enumerates a total of ninety-nine.
