1837 hard times token

It is a 1837 Van Buren currency .The pics do it no service but it could be the photographer!!! Had half an hour and hunted on my own property . Thought this was my third large cent from here but it's a token i guess , still pretty cool I think hh goldbill

Those are more rare to dig then a large cent. I only have one hard times token. Hope you had a great easter Bill. :thumbsup:

I remember digging a hard times token at my parents' house last year - had no idea what it was! Learned a lot about history figuring it out.

Awesome find! It's even more fun finding stuff at your own house :icon_thumleft:
