Modern copper tokens, inexpensive and detailed

Aspie_Rocco

I like how some of the modern bullion and copper tokens imitate US coins. I recently got new dansco pages for copper rounds and ordered a bunch to fill in the blanks. I like to old hard times tokens, but these are ultra affordable and modern.

I found the prospector series and zombucks amongst the most attractive copper rounds. The zombucks are, obviously, based on US coinage and have great detail. Silver shield mint makes some cool stuff too.

This set shown is partial, and makes for a heavy dansco album; 4 new pages and 38 rounds (I got some doubles) came in at under $75 for a fun dansco day. These pages can be filled with copper on a budget of around $24 each using best offer options for the pages and coins. Most can be had for less than $2 each.

Interesting... that is quite a collection.... Not an area that I have pursued... but I can see the attraction. Cheers, RickO

I have only one or two of these types of tokens, but I should consider adding to them. Some of these are very nice.

A few of them were designed by Heidi Wastweet, who does some excellent work.
