[QUOTE="CheetahCats, post: 1790460, member: 23874"]Thanks for the kind comments folks. I appreciate it. :) As to EyeEatWheaties' questions, I've been pursuing pre-20th century storecard and trade tokens for years. Those pictured above are Civil War tokens, and are part of a larger collection in my cabinet. For those who are interested, here is a [URL='http://www.novanumismatics.com/numismatic-faqs-guides/an-introduction-to-patriotic-civil-war-tokens/']link[/URL] to an article which introduces folks to Civil War tokens, their history, and the genesis for why they came into existence. And for those who would like to explore more about the general topic of storecards and private tokens, here is a [URL='http://www.novanumismatics.com/numismatic-faqs-guides/14-recommended-token-medal-exonumia-references/']link[/URL] to my page which discusses books on the topic, including books about Civil War tokens. In the meantime, here are a few more specimens from my cabinet per the OP's topic, that span the commonly defined numismatic eras during the 19th century: [IMG]http://gallery.novanumismatics.com/august2013/E-NY-406A-JEToken-Combined.jpg[/IMG][IMG]http://gallery.novanumismatics.com/HT441-CharlesBeck-Combined.jpg[/IMG][IMG]http://gallery.novanumismatics.com/sept2013/ALA-28-JASylvester-Combined.jpg[/IMG][IMG]http://gallery.novanumismatics.com/NY-820A-Smith&Hartmann-Combined.jpg[/IMG][IMG]http://gallery.novanumismatics.com/VA-22-JamesEWolff-Combined.jpg[/IMG][IMG]http://gallery.novanumismatics.com/may2013/OH910A-1a-PhotographicAlbums-Combined.jpg[/IMG][IMG]http://gallery.novanumismatics.com/centennial/PA-188-HarbachsWalnutCandy-Combined.jpg[/IMG][IMG]http://gallery.novanumismatics.com/centennial/Pa-Ph-741A-CBScottCo-Combined.jpg[/IMG][/QUOTE]
