Civil War token

[skierbob]

There's been some nice Civil War/Patriotic tokens found recently. I've found a few, mostly in really piss-poor shape. But this is the best one I've found. At least I think it's a Civil War/Patriotic token. It's copper and it's the size of a small cent.

Very nice!! It is definately a civil war token made in 1863 according to this one I found on E-bay. Yours looks in a lot better shape. Great find!!!

I am always interesting in seeing the many great tokens that I see on here. This one is perhaps one of the best of historic value that I have seen yet.

Congratulations,

Awesome CW token!
I could easily get hooked on collecting those. (If I had the $).
