SCOTTISH TOKENS
    Scotland is another country forcibly incorporated in the British scheme starting about 1000 years ago.  The embers of nationalism never died and have sprouted anew in recent years.  Coins & tokens have followed the British model, with time out for a few centuries of local inflation.
