MA115E-1a 1863 Good For A Scent token by Joseph H. Merriam, raw unc details $875
This is arguably the most popular Civil War token of all time, and I dont recall one ever being offered on these forums. Featuring a Golden Retriever heralded by the motto "Good For A Scent," this one has captured the hearts of collectors since the day of issuance 157 years ago. While not excessively "rare" as far as exonumia goes, they are always in demand and have the tendency to get gobbled up in the collections of people who do not normal buy such tokens.
Prices in the last 10 years or so have skyrocketed on these, so here presents a real opportunity to get one at a reasonable price.
Im selling it as "uncirculated details," because of some spotting, however it could go MS62 on a good day.
Full 7 day return policy if you are not pleased with it in hand.
Thanks for looking!

Nice coin, once you copy it over, keep this thread but just remove the payment part.
It's still a great token!
That is a very nice token... Being a dog lover (and owner), I have often thought about adding one of these... May still do that.... Cheers, RickO
