Bovril tokens

[redwine]

Neither can I
I just wanted a picture to show the area of the difference. 

[malj1]

I shall endeavour to seek my ones out in the next day or two, I might need a nudge. 

[malj1]

I found four and they all measure 4.5mm

[malj1]

I found another listing which describes this one above:

The bars above PARIS are short, spanning halfway onto the P and S

And the other:

The bars above PARIS are long, spanning almost the full length of the word.

another primitive B/W image of the latter shown  ...and in fact this description makes it much easier to spot.

[redwine]

Another from the above book that I missed previously, presumably also a souvenir of the Diamond Jubilee.

Obverse BOVRIL ℞. 50 TIMES MORE NOURISHING THAN ORDINARY EXTRACT OF MEAT OR BEEF TEA; Brass, 28.5mm

There's a French version of this!
I shall endeavour to snaffle it even though it's in dire condition

[malj1]

You may have found a very rare piece?  Shame about the condition and the removal of the hanger, I wish people wouldn't do this.   

I look forward to a better image too.

BOVRIL / (Eiffel Tower) / BOVRIL
BOVRIL / LE PLUS MERVEILLEU / ALIMENT DU SIECLE/ PARIS / RUE DE PALESTRO / LONDON / 30 FARRINGDON ST
Presumably for the 1889 World's Fair, Paris.
I hope I've got the letters right
7.3g
36mm
Non-magnetic

It looks like a drop of superglue could do wonders for this piece (and might be useful to reinforce the cracks also.

Peter

[redwine]

No, I couldn't do that Peter.  This piece, at this time is unique. 

[malj1]

"This piece, at this time is unique" 

Please seek another for me even though that will remove its unique label from your one. 

[redwine]

Well, it is!
And of course I'll look for you Mal. 
I don't hold out much hope though

This Queen Victoria's 1897 commemoration medal is what your piece may have looked like once.    ...note the registered design number on the hanger.

Silvered brass, 36.8mm 9.0g (perhaps the tag is heavy)

[redwine]

Nice!  But no mention of Bovril 

[malj1]

Just to show what the missing hanger would look like and the interesting registration number on it.  ...yours would be eight years earlier. 

[redwine]

But why no Bovril? 
I think I may have missed the point
