OK Coin Talk folks show your LOVE (tokens)

I do indeed love love tokens.

My old Seated & Barber Dime Love Token date set


Below are just some of the individual articles I've written up about love token and engraved coins I've owned in the last five years or so. Hope you'll glance at an article or two. Some of the coins had pretty fascinating backstories. Others were more mundane love tokens but had nice- or at least interesting- engraving.

*- Articles marked with a red asterisk are about pieces which can be traced to a specific individual. Those tend to be some of the more interesting ones, though not always the most artistic.
