Good point - No I do not - It was for informational purposes only as the 'picture' was supplied by someone else.

I don't know what the heck they are but...$30

[jgrinz]

"The Massachusetts Bay Tercentenary was celebrated in 1930 across the state with a variety of exonumia. The organizers hoped for a commemorative half dollar, but I suspect the Pilgrim half issued ten years earlier made that goal a long shot. At the end of 1930, Shepard Pond collected the various medals and tokens issued over the year to form a representative collection viewed as the state commission closed its books. Pond went on to publish a list of the items in the June 1931 Numismatist followed by updates over the next two years. The ANA brought the various articles together into a reprint."

 

Hope this helps

The last one I sold on Ebay (2 years ago) went for $65. and started at .99. I haven't checked the prices since, but the gentleman was glad to get it for that price!
