<p>[QUOTE="fretboard, post: 4862777, member: 19765"]I'm going through my Tokens and Medals, the ones I bought for historical reasons and I'm having trouble naming the makers on these. The Columbus Token at the bottom and the third and fourth pics down, I think those two were made by George Soley for the 1893 World's Fair but he didn't sign them. I could be wrong, that's why I'm asking for help! <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> Also, on a separate note, I made a George Soley album, it's not done yet as I have more Tokens to add, maybe 10 more. I'm just letting y'all know in case anyone wants to check it out. In case you're not familiar with Soley, he used to be an engraver for the US Mint in Philadelphia and he was also a private die sinker and some of his works are extremely rare! <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie33" alt=":cigar:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> Lastly, he was the maker of the little 13mm Tokens you see occasionally on the bay, link below, mid-page. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> Any comments?</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://www.fi.edu/history-resources/coin-press" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.fi.edu/history-resources/coin-press" rel="nofollow">https://www.fi.edu/history-resources/coin-press</a></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1174546[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1174547[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1174550[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1174551[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1174553[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1174555[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1174562[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1174563[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
