E-Bay Civil War Token

Ibnemo

I’ve been reading about these and I find them fascinating. So I bought one. I love it; if it’s a fake don’t tell me. It was within my budget. The Civil War, can you imagine the chaos and uncertainty of day to day life. Yet they produced a form of currency that worked for daily commerce. “The copper standard”. Is it possible that history could repeat itself? It boggles my simple mind.

Spoken like a true collector!

Cool. Although I do not actively collect these, I have a few and rather like them. Hard Times tokens are really interesting as well.

History preserved in copper. Nice token.


BTW, and I thought I didn't post very often -

Very nice and it appears to be a fuld number 100/341 which the obverse is a R6
But it would be nice to see bigger pics to see for sure.
