    Lol not for sale just wondering how much value it has. It was given to me by one of those old Legends you could only write about.

    Yes but this one has a specific town, not a normal reverse. What were they used for??

    It's still pretty neat and I probably wouldn't hesitate dropping three bucks on it if I saw it at a show.

    The countless mouth dropping stories and lessons ive learned from him are well worth the coffee i bought him in return for the coin. Old people just have that charm.

    Probably a promotional piece from the bank's 50th anniversary or something, maybe given to folks when they opened a new account.

    sorry to say, this has no value beyond personal. This is a 50th anniversary coin for the Indian Head Bank in Littleton, New Hampshire. Although bank memorabilia does tend to turn a profit to the right buyer, beyond that, no numismatic value.
