D.W. p. 326, 20; Moyaux suppl. I, 78A; Swann 80). Some marks to surface and rim, about very fine, very rare (£50-60)

Although with appearance of a commemorative medal, this is undoubtedly a ticket or pass. Second class tickets are also known. Moyaux states the metal tickets replaced those of paper.
