Can't think of the HT/CW token from So. Carolina w/ palms on it? HELP!

canadanz

I've been racking my brain and Google's servers trying to find a hard times or civil war token that has a palm on one side and features a clever motto. I can't remember the motto or whether it is hard times or civil war, or much about it. I just remember that I like it. Can you help? Post some pics of old S. Carolina tokens? Please?!

C.M.C. or Confederate Mining Company has been producing tokens and ingots for the past couple of years now


is that the one you meant?

W. W. Wilbur, I think.

I'm not sure who makes it. Greg, the example you showed isn't the one I'm after. It's definitely 19th century copper. Beyond that, and the fact is has a palm and some witty/clever motto I'm lost.

The "Wealth of the South" tokens feature a palmetto and cannons, but they were made in Cincinnati prior to the War.

That's the one! I could have sworn it was a South Carolinian token. Oh well. Thanks so much!
