<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Collecting Nut, post: 24716520, member: 74863&quot;]This is a CWT, aka a Civil War Token. It’s all one coin with the obverse (?) in the first photo and the reverse (?) in the second photo. Even all of the words are the same. I’m not sure if this is an error or not but this coin is full of errors.</p><p>ONE COUNTRY is centered with BROAS PIE BAKER at the top and the address of 181 41st St. N.Y. is along the bottom. Under the N in COUNTRY is a single star with an H directly under the star.</p><p>As for errors, this coin is full of them. The first noticeable thing is it was struck slightly off center. It has a number of die chips and die cracks. Some of the cracks are larger than normal and others touch the rim.</p><p>On the obverse side there is a very thin crack running through the H under the star. It looks like a speck of dust but in hand, it’s a crack. A few die chips are on the Y in N.Y.</p><p>The reverse has more errors. This is where the best die cracks are. Also, under the R and Y in COUNTRY and below the R in BAKER is a lamination peel. In a few places you can see a few letters. </p><p>This was caused by a clash in the dies. Looking closely you can see the outline of a design but I can’t quite make it out. The reverse looks damaged but it’s the clash that causes it.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1580361[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1580362[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>If anyone has more information on this coin (token) please feel free to post it. My Internet connection is terrible today. Ophelia is affecting it and we’ve had a lot of rain today. Nothing heavy, just steady.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
