Got out yesterday for a while..
Went back to a place that i started hunting last year..Lots of goodies came out of this place..
I found this coin and i thought it was foreign but it has the date of 1863..
So that made me think??? Could it be a civil war token...And by golly it is..
Its says shot them on the spot..
I love it..lol..
Also found some other things
I will post some pics.
Thanks for looking.
George

That Vino is an exceptionally nice find. Congratulations.
 

Nice finds as usual George.
 

In Rulau's catalog of US Tokens 1700-1900, he notes 9 varieties of this Patriotic Die (#s 203-216) with a Rarity Rating of 1,2 or 3; and an estimated value range of between $6 and $9 in VG condition.
Don......

Thanks Don..

That's a very cool find buddy! Not as cool as 1782 2 Reales but it's still respectable lol
 

Nice stuff ,That staff officers button will probably clean up really nice.HH
 

found the same token on 8/10 at Montrepose Cemetery in Kingston, NY. it reads THE FLAG OF OUR UNION IF ANYBODY ATTEMPTS TO TEAR IT DOWN SHOOT HIM ON THE SPOT. mine sold on Ebay for $13.59. when dug I thought it was in IH, then saw the flag and 1863. nice find
