Max Love!

Tookybandit

I am a big fan of the Maximilian series and have been working for years on a complete denomination set including the branch mint issues and varieties. I am ecstatic tonight adding a Love Token for an absolutely fantastic price! I haven't posted on here in a while and I wanted to share my happiness.

On a side note, does PCGS or NGC ever grade love tokens as such, without issuing a ding "Details" grade.

Is the reverse engraved at all? I like the griffins on these and wouldn't mind seeing a picture (ahem, hint hint).

This is actually the first love token I've seen graded. I would anticipate they are grading the coin, thus the graffiti/details grade. Not sure what standard or reference would apply to such personal and one-off items like this otherwise.

Can I ask why grading? Is it for a consistent style for a set (if your basic set is Maximillian rather than the token aspect)?

I like it!

Picked it up on eBay already graded, otherwise I think raw it might have sold at a higher price.

Nothing engraved on the back on this one. The reverse is awesome on these, here's an image from another one in the collection

Very nice!

Totally cool. Love tokens are something I ... well ... love!

Nope.
