New Civil War Token from eBay

Leiana

I sniped this one at the last minute. My dad's probably going to be a little mad, because I bid a bit more than I had permission for.

But I fell in love with the design! I can't wait to see it in hand!

Wow; I've only been to Ebay one time and then I did not win. That is cool, dare I say it, I just might have to check out the Bay again. Does seem they have some unique items. jws

I remember the days of having to ask permission from my mom to bid on stuff on eBay

Finally I just took over the account

And that is a pretty cool looking token

Thanks everyone!

I notice it doesn't show a date. Is that unusual for a CW token?

Atlantic

Great Score,, Very nice token

<< <i>I notice it doesn't show a date. Is that unusual for a CW token? >>



Yeah, a bit unusual. It does say 76 and 61, which I take for 1776 and 1861, but no true date, you're right!

Cool design, and I love the chocolate brown color. Very very nice piece Amanda!

Is that a Phrygian cap in the center? I believe so.

CoinAddict

Very nice, Amanda.

Really nice. If your dad is mad about bidding extra, just tell him you won't do it again... until you have to. Hahaha!
I really like little pieces of history like this. Have you done any research on this token? If you do, let us know what you find out.

Tell him to get used to it, you've established the pattern now. (And from personal experience I can say you are going to find yourself doing it again and again in the future.)

Yes it is a phrygian cap. Well done!

Thanks for all the nice comments everyone!

Really cool. If you find yourself getting bored with it - send it to me. I'll mail you a self-addressed-stamped-envelope to make it more convienient for you.

Seriously now, I was intrigued by your statement



<< <i> I sniped this one at the last minute. >>



Have you ever sniped at the last second? I used to get within about 2 seconds of the auction close - was too chicken to cut it down to the last second. Of course since then I've discover the sniping services. Most of them are free - but to cut it closer you have to pay a fee.

Actually, I think I sniped it with 13 seconds. I didn't actually think I would win it, but the high bidder had reached the max of his proxy bid. I've never used a program to do it before.

And I don't think I will be bored with it anytime soon!
