1877-S FS-301 C-21 RPD/RPM PCGS MS62. Rare in mint state. Typical grade is XF. Only know of a single higher graded specimen (PCGS MS64). The final 7 in the date is strongly repunched. The S mint mark is also repunched. The only pairing of either die.
Cool @ZoidMeister I like that set.
Well after all this time I finally have a new pickup.Quite lucky as this is a rare dealer merchant token in silver. and for a fraction of its value. Although I do not see anything marked as far as what metal it is but as I understand its silver.
It does have some shmutz on the reverse with is part toning and part dirt. I guess a soak in acetone is called for.
.
And I will quote @Broadstruck .....his description.
Earl Schill Rare Coin Dealer from Detroit Michigan Store Card struck on a silver planchet. In silver this is only
the second example I've even seen and far betters the other which was circulated and stained.
A vague facsimile of Augustus Saint-Gaudens $10 Indian and approximately the same diameter with a
phoenix instead of eagle as his shop also sold Native American artifacts.
Dated 1962-S with a mint mark as a nice design addition. Earl Schill's provenance at times appears within
auction descriptions of major early silver and gold coinage. He was a contributor to the first and following editions of the
Redbook and also involved with the distribution of Early Commemoratives.ECI ANS

Casually wanted one of these for years, since @MadMarty posted them on here. Forgot about it, but decided to get one finally. People price them all over the place. I got it pretty cheap, for what I consider a basic handling charge. (Doubt I can safely remove that latent fingerprint. But it is just a fun piece and hardly for investment.)

Ummm, I have tried on lesser copper nickel coins a 1:1 ammonia solution and then liberal rinsing with water and tamp dry with the clean white high nap towel.
Love that Milled British (1830-1960) Well, just Love coins, period.
When these were happening I never got the 67PL Kennedy and 70 sac combo. Only 69 sac. This seems to be the ticket and at a good price. Goes well with my 67PL Kennedy and now I’ll gift the 69 sac. 😉🙀🦫
Haven’t bought anything in awhile 😎

I did a little dip with Conserv with a water rinse and microfibre pat dry. Seemed to come off. It must have been from the person who shipped it to me. Older prints will etch the surface.
TV on the $3 is not amazing but the coin has fantastic color in hand. Morgan is for my typeset-cleanest cheek and smoothest surfaces I've seen at a reasonable price. Funny, it's my second Morgan...both are 81-S. T$ is ex- @DDR

I love how the ‘S’ mint mark on that gold dollar is of a larger font than all of the lettering.
