That is the reverse die I was referring to. I had always heard that it was the lack of silver and gold that had shut down the mints. True, the...
The whole story always sounded fishy to me. Why would the Confederacy make a deal with a northern token manufacturer? They had 3 working mints...

I don't think I could consider myself a St. Patrick collector, I have a total of 1 farthing! Would like to pick up a halfpenny though. Syd...
