[QUOTE="brg5658, post: 1998024, member: 29751"]Two new pieces of exonumia. The first is a pretty difficult merchant token to hunt down...the Indian bust obverse has just stunning detail, and of course, I'm a fan of the horse on the reverse. ;) With a little help from a friend, I believe this token to be at least Rarity-4 (200-500 struck), and possibly rarer. Hard to know for sure. I know of 3-4 others graded in mint state by NGC, but pops are not available.

The store burned down around the turn of the century (c. 1900). There is a bit of a smudge under the horse on this one, but the luster is out of this world, and I couldn't pass it up!
