just received this one, the last token to complete the set of Carlisle barracks tokens. The only sutler tokens I own. I have a question for everyone, I know it will detail grade, but will it get encased, or will it come back body bagged from NGC for the rim damage. Very tuff token to find in any condition.

Guys, I just came out with my latest catalog of offerings. Some Civil War stuff and other medals. Have a look at the atttached file. Thanks for looking.
P.S. If anyone wants to subscribe, just send me your email. I do these catalogs throughout the year, maybe every 3 months or so. A little something for everyone.

Could use a little help with attribution on this token. Stereoscopic Pictures Byron Ohio - Die marriage has me stumped.

One more new purchase. The broken die and zigzag marking intrigued me enough that I ended up purchasing it. Not really sure what’s going on there. Almost looks like a clash mark from something resembling an Indian head cent headdress but not really. Anybody have any ideas?

New Purchase

This is the first token I've gotten in a few months, and It's a beauty. It's an R-9 and in hand I think 64 or 65 Rb. I like that the company is still in business today. Just a little darker than photo.

New Purchase. I like this one, it’s common but has lots of character

Super quiet around here, yet we have 110 members now!
What do you guys think about spicing things up with some offerings for sale? I dont want the group to turn into the many MyCollect groups where it's dealers pushing their wares everyday, but maybe we could pick a day like Sundays to post available CWTs or want lists? What do you all think?

This is a bronze medal struck to commemorate the heroic action of George T. Robinson in thwarting the attack on Secretary of State William Seward. This was all a part of the larger conspiracy to assassinate President Lincoln, Vice President Johnson, and Seward. As he lay recovering from illness, Seward was attacked by one of John Wilkes Booth's conspirators, Lewis Powell, who had already stabbed his son. The medal depicts a dramatic knife fight. This sold at Stacks last month, unfortunately not to me.

D. Skidmore's Hotel, Seneca Falls, NY. This is one underrated Civil War token from New York! Wayyyy harder to find than the famous "Good for a Scent" and nearly as popular with the eagle holding a cigar on its beak. This is the plate coin to Fuld's Storecard book, and it's the reddest example I have ever seen of this variety. A blazer! From the Steve Tanenbaum Collection

This Marshall House token predates the Civil War by 2 years, but is wildly popular. Why? Not only does it use the French Liberty head motif that Robert Lovett, Jr designed for the infamous Confederate Cent, but the Marshall House was the scene of one of the first casualties of the War. On May 24, 1861, Colonel Elmer Ellsworth was killed at the Marshall House in Alexandria, Virginia while removing a Confederate flag there. He was the first Union officer to die in the War. This token would have been used at this establishment during those times.
This example was sold at Stacks recently for the astonishing price of $1320. It is graded PCGS MS63, the only uncirculated example I know of. But is it truly uncirculated?? It is weakly struck for sure, with typical softness on the 9 of the date.
But it seems to these eyes to be a nice AU 58., without the benefit of an in hand observation.

These two tokens came from my great grandfather, a Civil War veteran. He passed down a leather purse with many coins and tokens in it from 1893 through 1894. My dad gave them to me when I was a kid. Here are the two that Todd Pollock (BluCC Photos) just imaged for me.
