Ineson 304

Cape/Kimberley.  1899-1900 BOER WAR RATION TOKEN (Beige) for FOUR PINTS OF SOUP, which had to be collected at the Town Hall Depot, Kimberley.  Type II.  Very fine unissued condition.  THESE TOKENS ARE VERY RARE AND HARDLY EVER FOUND IN GOOD CONDITION.  THIS IS AN INCREDIBLE HISTORIC ITEM IN THAT IT WAS PHYSICALLY HANDLED AND USED BY SOMEONE WHO WAS THERE, LIVING, AT THE TIME OF THIS DREADFUL WAR.
