1st - I noticed this was your very first post - so, Welcome Aboard Rdjones370! You didn't list your state (or country) in your profile. So, you might consider jumping over to Sub-Forum: Select Your Area.... for information (i.e., clubs, hunts, finds, legends, maps, etc.) directly related to your state (or country).

Welcome to the Tnet forums from Toronto R.D.! :hello:

Another amazing I.D. my friend! :notworthy:

"1864 D. Peck & Co. Civil War Store Card

Ironton, MO, Fuld 400A-1a, MS64 Red and Brown
1864 D. Peck & Co., Ironton, MO, Fuld 400A-1a, R.7, MS64 Red and Brown NGC. Only four Missouri merchants issued Civil War Store Cards, one located in Ironton and three in St. Louis.
This Choice Mint State example has lovely bluish-brown toning on its lustrous surfaces, with more than half of its original mint red color remaining.

Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society."

The references say that two dies (#1046 and #1047) were used for the Indian Head and #1047 is even more scarce. You would have to compare closely to make sure. Here are pages from "U.S. Civil War Store Cards" Ostendorf, Ed. (2014) and "A Guide Book of Civil War Tokens" Bowers (2013).
