THE TOKENS OF CORNWALL, 33 



The tokens of the 18th and 19th centuries do not call for any- 

 special comment; since they explain themselves. It will be 

 observed that the copper series has the most intimate connection 

 with mining ; and in fact appears to have originated in the wants 

 of the mining enterprise of the county. 



In conclusion, I have to express my thanks for aid kindly 

 rendered, in addition to the gentlemen already named, by the 

 Rev. J . B. Jones, Vicar of St. Ives, the Rev. T. W. Wintle, Vicar 

 of Maker, Mr. Brooking Williams, junr., St. Ives ; Mr. R. K. Frost, 

 Launceston; and Mr. N. Hare, junr., Liskeard.
