<p>[QUOTE="cwtokenman, post: 148285, member: 2100"]Hmmm, was hoping to see a picture or at least some description of the other side. This is highly likely to be post Civil War. The single most important feature is that if it is an attributable token as opposed to a maverick (a "generic" or token of unknown origin or issuer). If it has a merchant's name/location, it would likely be worth at least a few dollars at the low end, or possibly hundreds at the high end. Typically identifiable "good fors" sell on ebay in the $4-$10 range, but occasional values of $40-50 are not all that uncommon for some tougher issues. Some types such as brunswick-balke and saloon tokens often sell for at least $50, and go up from there. If you can provide some more info, I will try to help you further. Condition is not as crucial to a token's value as with regular coinage. What it is carries more weight than how nice it is.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
