Soley minted this small 1832 medal, see link, on the steam press he bought from the US Mint.&nbsp; Well, I finally found out that he most likely didn&#039;t b/c he barely bought the steam press in 1875.&nbsp; With that said, according to the below link, dates on tokens aren&#039;t always accurate, so we may never know. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie11" alt=":rolleyes:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />&nbsp; My question is this, if the US Mint did mint that 1832 medal, what was the occasion?&nbsp; Oh well, just sharing some information.&nbsp; Oh, forgot to add my pic of a steam press token pressed by the US Mint, I think.&nbsp; Also, nobody could have minted that 1832 medal in 1832 b/c the US Mint didn&#039;t get the press until after that date.&nbsp; Dang, messed up the order of the text and the pics.&nbsp; Oh well. </p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-1832-U-S-MINT-Phila-Token-Lords-Prayer-Token-by-SOLEY-Rare-Find-/291766851546?hash=item43eea8d7da:g:jkgAAOSw3zxXL-nt" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-1832-U-S-MINT-Phila-Token-Lords-Prayer-Token-by-SOLEY-Rare-Find-/291766851546?hash=item43eea8d7da:g:jkgAAOSw3zxXL-nt" rel="nofollow">http://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-1832-U-S-MINT-Phila-Token-Lords-Prayer-Token-by-SOLEY-Rare-Find-/291766851546?hash=item43eea8d7da:g:jkgAAOSw3zxXL-nt</a></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>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
