Here are a few NY pieces I have:

 

Nice! The top 2 are common pieces but never the less interesting! Gustavous was one of the most famous!

 

Beautiful toning on the first one coleguy. The Schulze piece is very nice as well. Thanks for posting them.

Thanks. I love collecting old tokens. I don't usually collect by state or city (except for my hometown) but rather by interesting designs. My problem is there are too many to choose from.

 

That is a difficult problem than.

 

NY - 1863 Alden & Frink

MA - 1865 JA Bolen (die sinker of tokens)

 

This one is a new arrival & I know nothing about it.

 

Your J.A. Bolen token is in outstanding condition Collect. Dave Bowers is a big collector of Bolen tokens and exonumia if you didn't know, so you're in good company.
