I bought and broke this out of an SEGS MS64 holder - toned with blues and greens on both sides, but most attractively on the Washington side. I now have Copper (Ex: Virgil Brand), the Silver (above), and the Gilt (yet to be imaged) examples of this token.</p><p><br /></p><p>I may have posted, but this token was neat because the US Mint set up a press at the Great Central Fair and stamped these tokens more or less on demand for visitors. The copper examples are on US cent planchets. Kinda cool in the Civil War token world, since most were considered at best uncouth and at worst illegal to circulate. There are minor die varieties in the dozens, but the three compositions I have listed above are the &quot;Big Three.&quot;[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
