<p>[QUOTE=&quot;johnmilton, post: 26800874, member: 101855&quot;]The two Fuld&nbsp; books are the classic reference sources for Civil War token. The smaller book, <u>Patriotic</u> <u>Civil</u> <u>War</u> <u>Tokens</u>, covers pieces which cannot be attributed to a specific merchant. They include pro and anti Union pieces and politically neutral items. The merchant store card book covers the pieces which can be attributed to a specific merchant. I think both are out of print because the Civil War Token Society has published larger, more comprehensive works.</p><p><br /></p><p>The good news is the new books are a joy for those who collect Civil War tokens. They have a wealth of information about the general history of the period and each merchant who issued tokens. The bad news is they are more expensive. You can join the Civil War Token Society and buy them at a discount.</p><p><br /></p><p>George and Melvin Fuld were the son and father team who wrote the original books.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
