<p>[QUOTE="desertgem, post: 641985, member: 15199"]Your original question was and since we seem to have settled on the idea of a Scott token, let consider your question. Several people have commented and no one said "fake". What was said was that there is suspicion due to the surface appearance. You see the token, we see photos, and can't tilt them to see the surface 3-D, and that is a disadvantage. Yet many of us have seen copies with surfaces like this that are either copies or have been buried in soil for a while. We are not trying to give you a hard time, it is just that there is not enough to say it is authentic. It is not just your token, if I showed a trade dollar with the same appearance, I would get the same response. Anyway all of us forgot to welcome you to the forum, I hope you stick around. Someone that has more expertise in this will probably chime in as tokens and Civil war tokens specifically are very collectible. </p><p><br /></p><p>Jim[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
