<p>[QUOTE=&quot;cwtokenman, post: 171565, member: 2100&quot;]Keep looking if you are willing to wait in order to save $10 or so. That design is readily available on ebay pretty much on a daily basis.</p><p><br /></p><p>Many cwts of that appearance are very common and list for $15 in XF and $20 in UNC. You are correct that there are subtle differences between many of these tokens. Depending upon how much difference there can be and still be &quot;close&quot; in appearance, I would consider 34 of the Liberty Head dies and 36 &quot;Army &amp; Navy&quot; dies to be close to the token you linked to. There are many combinations of those dies, as well as a variety of metals used, resulting in a long list of similar cwt id number possibilities.</p><p><br /></p><p>Treashunt, IMO Rulau&#039;s is nearly worthless as far as cwts are concerned. Rulau indictes (in the left column on pg. 433, 4th ed.) that only the commonest variety of each merchant and patriotic die is covered, so none of the others (and there are thousands of them) will be covered in his listing. The Fulds have hardcover books (one for store cards and one for patriotics) that are very good for proper identification. Do not buy the small black softbacks by Fuld - not very usable. If you would ever like any assistance with cwt info, just let me know and I will do my best.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
