- Are there any competitive sets for Civil War tokens? Perhaps just of a limited topic, like the Monitor tokens?
If you collect CWT, which are some of your favorites?0 Comments 0 Shares 621 Views - Commenting is disabled.
- I think it has to do with the hardness of the copper nickel, most copper nickel tokens have strike weakness.I think it has to do with the hardness of the copper nickel, most copper nickel tokens have strike weakness.

- I hope to jumpstart this group and get people posting again. I got this token a few months back, I didn't know anything about it except I read that very few store cards were paired with the wealth of the south tokens. It was on Ebay with a starting bid of 6 or 8 hundred dollars. After a few days of no bids, I asked if they would do a buy it now. I received an offer that they would take, still not sure of what this was I accepted. Even though it was graded by NGC, it did noy match variety for this merchant. I contacted Dennis and he pointed me to the CWTS and the book by David Bowers, Wealth of the South tokens. The merchant was listed but not this die combination, so I contacted the CWTS and John Ostendorf, and he said that this is an unlisted variety. Maybe an R-10 token.I hope to jumpstart this group and get people posting again.

- That is some piece! The Weighell and Sons operated a tobacco company called the Excelsior Works. Considered a kind of holy grail in storecards of Ohio, cant beat an unlisted variety!

- 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.just received this one, the last token to complete the set of Carlisle barracks tokens. The only sutler tokens I own.

- mrpress62 This time of year when peoppe are a bit crunched for the holidays, the market softens a bit. Same thing happens in summer, but more so because people are outside and vacationing. I had my eye on a few lots but did not participate. How about you?[mrpress62] This time of year when peoppe are a bit crunched for the holidays, the market softens a bit.

- DeadCatWaltz I bid on one, when I woke up for work this morning, I was hoping I lost, and I did. Waiting for Hayden's sale, but I know prices are always strong in his sales.[DeadCatWaltz] I bid on one, when I woke up for work this morning, I was hoping I lost, and I did.

- 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?One more new purchase.

- This is what I like about civil war tokens, you can have the same token in different die states, and each is more interesting than the last. Nice token.This is what I like about civil war tokens, you can have the same token in different die states, and each is more interesting than the last. Nice token.

- 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.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.
