    A store card is a type of token. This one is a Civil War store card based on the date.

    As far as condition, the pictures are kind of fuzzy. Is that damage at the top of the reverse?

    Any rough estimate on the value?

    I would say anywhere between 25-40 $ going by realized prices , also a little hard to judge by pictures. But I would expect it to fall in that price range.
