No question really, I know I won't be able to buy this token as I'm trying to wean myself off of my ebay addiction! I'm thinking this beautiful Lovett token will end up being a big ticket item, too much moo-la for this hombre! Anyone else, hooked on buying off ebay or am I all alone? https://www.ebay.com/itm/RARE-BRASS-NEW-YORK-WITCH-ON-A-BROOM-LOVETT-TOKEN-M-NY-491B/163613830552
Couldn't get the link. Is it the "We all have our hobbies" token? I buy as much as I can off eBay. Not just Exo and silver but anyting that I would buy at Walmart or Amazon I check eBay too. Sometimes I can get it for the same price or lower and no shipping. A couple of weeks ago I bought a Stones Greatest hits CD cheaper on eBay then Amazon. this week it was cheaper and *less aggravating* to buy The Beatles Magical Mystery Tour CD from Amazon.
Yep, it's a witches token. For posterity, I'm posting the images here. It's graded MS62 by PCGS. Not sure I agree with that or not. These do usually sell for strong money. I have an example in copper (photographed in two different ways below). They are a fun piece of exonumia.
IMO that token has active corrosion. Here is the link to the PCGS certification page and PCGS photos: https://www.pcgs.com/cert/34935312
Yes, this a much higher ticket item that the opening price. I am a bit surprised that PCGS has given this item a straight grade given the spots which are starting to look like corrosion. I much prefer my tokens to be raw when I can find them that way. Here is the one in my collection.
