<p>[QUOTE=&quot;cwtokenman, post: 250836, member: 2100&quot;]I have purchased many a token with problems, and I enjoy them just as much as ones without problems. With somewhere near 8400 varieties of Civil War tokens having known populations of 20 or less (and a high percentage at 4 or less), passing on a problem example may mean passing on one&#039;s only chance to own one of that variety. The scarcity of these tokens also means that problems have minimal effect on value. Fuld suggests in his patriotic book that a holed example of a cwt be devalued about 15 per cent from an undamaged example of the same token. I also like nice examples, but my approach is to obtain an example first, then if the opportunity presents itself, I can always upgrade. I would hate to pass on a damaged token only to find out that the other known example was even worse.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
