[QUOTE="StevenHarden, post: 3567403, member: 67639"][FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=5]I did happen to find some more information on the "Newport and Covington Bridge Company" piece, but only about the REEDED item. The Spring 2016 Issue of "The Civil War Token Journal", page 29-30, contained a list of "Tanenbaum Civil War Tokens for Sale. Within that list was KY-640-B-3a (R8), MS-65RB (NGC) for sale for $1,980.

Even so, this all still refers to a piece with a REEDED edge. The piece that I am in possession of is one with a PLAIN edge.
