There's some introductory information, a history of the sutler, and background for the most prominent die sinkers. Maybe 15 pages? The rest is the...
That's a neat error (clip), but probably won't add tremendous value. Certainly worth keeping, though!
I have both editions of Schenkman and the Curto pamphlet - the second edition of Schenkman's guide is worth the money. Large, full color images...
These are sutler tokens, a subset of the Civil War token genre. A sutler was a civilian merchant that followed the regiments around during the war...
I'm going to resurrect this old thread, just because now all three of the tokens in the set live in PCGS plastic with TrueViews. Again, I am...
My recent NGC ---> PCGS crossover submission just hit. Mr. Arnold did a magnificent job on the TrueViews, so I thought I would share. [ATTACH]...
I bought a coin from them last year because they had the best price on it at the time. I have nothing bad to say - the coin was purchased before...
I most certainly agree with 2 and 3. 1 would really depend on the type of coin and the price.
Drumroll: NGC graded this one as MS61 - I don't disagree. The type is almost always struck weakly in the center of both sides, so the grades end...

I would say GSC has gotten better over time - I bought several coins from them about 5 years ago that were presented in a favorable way, that had...
I will add this for the masses - this token received a problem free grade. The spots look much worse in the photo than in hand - they are...
Depending on your area of interest, Spink's has good stuff - they have been around for years. I could list a few Civil War token auctions, most...
Hello all! I bought this token at Heritage last year, and just heard back from NGC about the grade. This is a tough type - figured it'd be a great...
Third Party Graders - PCGS, NGC, etc.
I think a TPG would net it as either XF45 or AU50 - I don't think the underlying surface is damaged, but that's some deep toning, fer sher.
[ATTACH] Seller's pics - just picked up this "Double Header" Civil War token - NY-630L-17a, with two (nearly) identical dies, the latter in it's...
As the title indicates, I have the following three coins available. All are PCGS PR69DCAM (I think this is still TOP POP for all 3), Canada 1C,...
