Civil War Era Goodies... they were modern at one time too!

Went to two coin shows today with the "Mad One" (yes, he has a valid IL drivers license!). While he was finding CAM's, DCAM's, and Accented Hairs, I found some nice Civil War Era tokens, coins and a Fractional. The token 'First In War, First in Peace' (1863) is an Indiana primative, the OUR CARD (1864) token is an R-5 and the Stoves token (1863) is an R-4. All that and a nice little half dime.(1861) Comments appreciated....

(I know the pics need work)

Nice Civil War theme set. Great pieces of history.

i like the look of the coins.

i never saw a 10cent fractional note before minted by a bank.
interesting post.

edited to add: the ultimate civil war coin to me is a 1864S liberty
half eagle.
