I usually have some of each of the above in my pockets, and I spend them quite often. It is amusing to observe the reactions, and oftentimes it...
Sorry that I did not see your post before the auction ended. Treashunt is correct, at that price, and with s/h, it would have been a good deal....
I can't provide any information specific to your token, but I have some general information. In Alpert and Elman's "Tokens and Medals" Guide...
I think the saying "a chain is only as strong as its weakest link" applies very well for this situation. What does it matter how...
It much easier (and likely with better results) to make friends with a bank teller (store clerk, etc.) or two. They see lots of coins, and they do...
I do, and will as long as I am able.
It is hard to know exactly what you have without pics or a good description, but it certainly sounds like a relatively recent issue. At this...

Sorry that I can not provide any specific information on your items, but IMO they are of very low value, and would not be worth the cost of a...
I would like to collect at least one Civil War token from each of the 400 issueing cities. Considering that even George and Melvin Fuld did not...
You are very welcome, edix. I had not noticed the die break earlier, it blends into the background fairly well.
I forgot to mention that at first, I thought your token was missing the "165" from the address, but it is there ever so faintly. Jas. Murdock,...
What edix reported matches Rulau's catalog, but Rulau is both in err and incomplete. From the color of the token in the picture, I agree with...
Picked up two more books last week: Arizona Wooden Money and Commemorative Issues - 1978 1st edition & the 1984 photo supplement for the above.
