Happy I could help. This one in particular actually came from the renowned John Dean (PCGS uses his cataloging for Mint Medals). Sold it to me out of his personal collection. I’ve never seen another example. So, there’s a little pedigree for ya It’s currently on its way to you. So, happy it’s going to a good home!

Speaking of which, if you do end up sending it in for grading (I.e. NGC), let me know and I’ll send you the original invoice from John Dean proving it was his. That way they’ll pedigree The John Dean Collection. Definitely adds a bit of history and value to it. — Keep me posted!

I literally threw away one of these a month ago didn’t know it had any value. Was cleaning out a box of token “junk” to de-clutter. Opps

I wonder how many times this has happened over the years with tokens. Some are quite rare because the vast majority have undoubtedly been discarded.

These are cool, and a nice complement to the Beaver overstrikes that @Lakesammman made with Dan Carr a while back.

If you would send that to me I would appreciate it
