    Okay, I got these from a relitive who passed away a year or two ago. Are they worth ANYTHING more than their weight in brass?

    Any help at all would be apriciated,

    If you want to know how much they're worth, check out the prices on ebay for the same item. If that don't help you then you can go to a token show and find out that way. If they bug you and you don't want them anymore, I understand totally and I will take them off your hands. :D

    My honest guess is they're worth a couple of bucks each, to the right person. Some coin collectors, don't like tokens but I do. :thumb:

    eBay!!! Duh!!! :headbang:

    They bug me a little, but I think I'll keep 'em.:p

    Who knows? Maybe brass will become uber rare someday... or not...

    Anyways, ebay said like, $4-5 per medal... not too bad... But I think that is more than they are worth... Now I'm just ranting... Best quit typing now, or I'll never stop...

    hey I have the exact same set, mine is unopened and just sitting there collecting dust, I bought it at a garage sale a couple years ago for like 10 cents. I didn't really think they had any value but I could be wrong. Do you think I should keep them?

    Didn't find much on Heritage but I looked on eBay and there's a set identical selling for $20, I think I just might keep them...not bad for the 10 cents I paid :)
