[QUOTE="Hiddendragon, post: 1266887, member: 25270"]I'm looking for any info on these tokens. I call them tokens but I don't know for sure. The first says 1849 on one side with a liberty bust. The reverse says "California 1849" and has a picture of a gold miner. Both sides have this black stuff on them that I can't figure out if it's part of the coin or something someone added later. The second is in the best shape. One side has a picture of a woman with the word "Dodd" on her head. That side says Cincinatti 144 Main St. The reverse says Dodd & Co. Hatters Cincinnati. The third looks like a 1840s-era large cent on the obverse. I can't make out any writing on this side. Both sides are this gold color. Again I don't know if this is original or something someone added later. On the reverse I can make out the words "(something) Spiel Marke" on the bottom and on the top "Unitate (hole) Ortitudo (fortitude?) These were 25 cents apiece so don't feel bad if they're just junk. I thought it was worth taking a chance.[/QUOTE]
