Aqui a la venta ofrecemos un SET (1) de dos (2) fichas de uso mixto Agrícola y Comercial, valores
5 Almudes
tamaño 19mm,
y
10 Almudes
, tamaños 23mm y
, ambas en
material de níquel, similar al diámetro de un vellón de 10 centavos y uno de 5 centavos. Esta fichas fueron comisionadas por Fernando Gómez de Las Marías. El y su hermano Enrique Gómez fueron dueños de varias haciendas de café y de un puesto comercial en el barrio Palma Escrita de dicho municipio. La ficha data de 1890, utilizada al menos, hasta ser este tipo de ficha prohibida por el nuevo gobierno colonial Americano, como método legal de pago.
Usted recibirá 2 piezas similar a las de la foto, totalmente legible y en buen estado, poca circulación y leve porosidad.
Según bastante conocido en el ámbito coleccionista, estas piezas fueron en su mayoría encontradas todas juntas en los 1990s al fondo de una antigua letrina, pegadas unas con otras formando en una bola de calcificación, tal como quedaran cuando fueron escondidas, tiradas en un saco hacen 100 años antes, para no ser robadas y luego redimidas por las partidas sediciosas de ladrones que se dedicaron a saquear comercios Españoles o de fieles a la corona, una vez Puerto Rico se rinde a los Americanos tras la Guerra Hispanoamericana.
Estas piezas fueron separadas y limpiadas, pero usualmente presentan leves manchas de porosidad, alguna coloración negrusca or rojiza, y una que otra presenta leve desgaste por haber circulado, aunque se presume bien poco. Muy posiblemente  manufacturadas en Europa, como la gran mayoría de los riles de hacienda de gran detalle. Totalmente originales de época,
garantizado
.
ENGLISH:
For your consideration, one SET (1) of TWO tokens, one
"
Good for 5
," 19mm, and a
"Good for 10
," 23mm, both in thin planchet in nickel material, known as being of mixed Agricultural & Trade use. These pieces were commisioned by Mr. Fernando Gomez, who owned several Coffee plantations  and a Commercial establishment at the borough of  Palma Escrita, in the mountainous municipality of Las Marias, in the Western part of Puerto Rico, just East of the port city of Mayaguez. Fernando had a brother named Enrique, who also issued tokens, of a larger size in Brass.
The F Gomez token is known to have been issued in the 1890s and used probably up until the American colonial authority deemed them illegal as a form of payment, at around 1902. They were probably manufactured in Europe, as was common for the nicer looking tokens.
At the end of the Spanish American war, the Spanish authorities in Puerto Rico left the island to the American military, who had no idea how to communicate with the Spanish speaking locals, which created a void of several months the rule of law, something bandits took advantage of, specially in the isolated mountains away from the cities, where American military moving in to fill in, took days to weeks to arrive, too late more often than not, when damage had long been done.  In this void, it was common for Merchants to throw their tokens pushed deep into latrines with wooden sticks, so as to avoid getting their tokens stolen by poor peasants turned into bands of thieves, that looked for revenge against sympathizers of the Spanish Crown, normally seen as oppressors and outsiders turned rich by enslaving the locals into a feudal economy sanctioned by the Catholic church. Then merchants had to leave country or face being killed if found, hence tokens were never recovered, their burned states claimed back by the jungle, this being why many of these are so rare to find today.
It is widely cited that most Palma Escrita tokens were found as part of a large hoard in the early 1990s, when excavating a long abandoned latrine septic hole adjacent to the ruins of the merchant establishment. They were extracted as a ball of white calcified material, all glued together by time, probably just as they had been thrown in a sack. These tokens were processed and cleaned. a piece may exhibit some dark or reddish stain spots and some porosity, but be otherwise in outstanding condition, totally legible, with mild wear, porosity, coloration or stains, small scratches and nicks. The piece you are to win is
guaranteed
as original of that era, a real Spanish colonial token over 100 years old.

PACKAGING
Enviamos dentro de mica, cartón, cápsula, o protector acrílico, envuelto entre cartón grueso o burbuja, dentro de sobre o caja sellado con cinta adhesiva a los 4 lados. Haremos todo lo posible por resolver su problema y ganar su satisfacción. Algunas medalla o moneda quizá sea enviada en cápsula de acrílico como cortesía nuestra. Debido a que usted pagó por la medalla o moneda, y no por la cápsula, nosotros no somos responsables de reemplazar cápsulas recibidas rotas. Debido a que las medallas vienen con alguna que otra imperfección de fábrica, es normal que una medalla contenga algún rayacito o cantacito mínimo de lo cual no somos responsables. Las antiguedades que vendemos tienen imperfecciones por vejez, uso y desgaste, que pudieran no reflejarse en las fotos. Por eso sólo reemplazaremos o devolveremos dinero en caso de mercancía recibida gravemente dañada. Clientes que abusen con reclamaciones exageradas e infundadas serán bloqueados en el futuro.

We’ll do everything we can to help you and get your 5 stars. Some medals or coins may be shipped inside plastic capsules as a courtesy of ours. Because you paid for a medal or coin, and not for an acrylic capsule, we are not to be held responsible over capsules received cracked or broken. Medals received from the factory will feature minor scratches or nicks over which we shouldn't be held responsible. Likewise, vintage items we sell may feature imperfections due to age, tear, and wear, which may not reflect on the photos. Due to this, we will only replace or provide refund on items received greatly damaged. Clients maliciously seeking to take advantage of the system by placing bogus or exaggerated claims will be blocked from making future business with us.
