The dealer accross from my table at the Money Show of the Southwest had a binder and a box of foreign and US Love Tokens. I immediately picked out the 1884 dime- I know they exist but I had never seen one with color in-hand. I also liked the engraving. The dealer told me he had just bought a group of love tokens and showed me is 'new stock' box. They were mostly foreign but in with them was this 1883 Liberty Nickel token. Not only had I never seen one before, but I also liked the gold plating- it made me think 'racketeer love token' even though I know it wasn't plated for that reason. Enjoy!
