PCGS still does't slab Civil War or Hard Times Tokens, do they?

RYK

I saw mention recently that CWTs might be certified by PCGS soon, but I do not remember where or by whom.

Broadstruck

Not yet and NGC I was just told is taking 3-4 months

Please I hope not! Don't even talk about it. HTTs and CWTs (and all other exonumia for that matter) should stay ATS IMHO. I hope our hosts have enough good sense to stay away!!! Ughhh....

And I'd give ATS about a 97% chance of a correctly labeled coin.

messydesk mentioned PCGS said they will start slabbing CWTs soon at the PCGS ANA Luncheon.

I'm looking forward to the TrueViews

97% ATS is a high estimate!

Submitted a CWT at the ANA and got it back in less than a month - with the incorrect attribution.

But that's it....sadly

The Auction data base is here

I really don't understand your antipathy for Civil War Tokens and Hard Times Tokens. They have been legitimate collectables for a long as contemporary coins have been, and many of them have for more interesting back histories.

Yes, QDB mentioned this at the PCGS Luncheon.

I did, indeed. Nothing more specific than "soon".

Oh boy....do I have something they can start with TrueViews also

I think they do collectors a great disservice by NOT attributing Feuchtwanger Cents. What's so difficult about it? 13 varieties each with very clear diagnostics. If they carry this over to CWTs your label will carry no info but the grade year and "civil war token"
