    Whipple dollar. Some sort of store card or token. Circa pre 1900. Made of gilt bronze. HK-832 to be exact.

    As for grade? I’ll guess 63 just because of the spots.

    I have noticed that quite a few of these have spots (likely caused by a combination of the composition and storage methods). I personally subtract for spots (at least when they are egregious) , but I've seen the TPGs be mixed as to how they treat spots.

    After looking around online at these this one seems like a supreme example in terms of eye appeal. Not sure if it’s been cleaned as there is no evidence. The one I found on HA was back in 2007 but at the time had an NGC census of 6 in 63 with only 2 grading higher.

    I had to look up what a Whipple dollar is. Quite interesting.

    Well dang it.... now I gotta look it up too.... I had my money on the foil coin pressings. There was a cool thread about those a week or so ago.

    See the link in the post above yours.
    It isn't one of those foil pressings but I do see some similarities (from just looking at the picture).
