Where have these threads gone? It's the weekend, let's see some copper!
William H. Key/ J. H. Diehl storecard, Philadelphia (1869) 23mm
This one intrigued me at the last Stacks auction, as I cant think of many examples of a "dual storecard." Interesting the way PHILADELPHIA bisects the reverse, oriented horizontally, to give each diesinker's advertising info.
The obverse is just awesome. It kind of reminds me of the "sailor head" Morgan dollar pattern, but with feathers.

Nice copper everyone. I just can't stop collecting California themed coins. Oh yeah, I know why?

@WaterSport That is a tough one, I remember! It has nice doubling below the earlobe, too. Though a weaker second hubbing, the spread is pretty wide

Correct DCW - Far more scarce than DDO 1 and 2. Off to PCGS soon, probably 64 Red.

Good luck! If not for the carbon spotting, I'd say it was a lock 64

Once mistakenly cataloged by author and researcher Russell Rulau as an American issue struck during the Hard Times era later disproved as Hulme was a small municipality that was once located on the outskirts of Manchester, England.

William Henry Bridgens store card paired with his Money Makes the Mare Go die.
This was from QDB's reference collection and I was lucky enough to pick this up from @DCW. Thanks Dennis!
The token is much more flashy in hand than the TrueView suggests. Here's the TrueView and a quick in hand photo.
How bout some zink the other copper🤪

That was a great piece! Here is another Bridgens token, this one using the "Money Makes the Mare Go" reverse die and scarce John Quinn obverse:
