Looking for Top Pop Mercury Dime Varieties & High Grade Mercury Dime Toners.
- Marcus Tullius Cicero, 106-43 BC
Franklin Delano Roosevelt 1932 Lucky Tillicum token
Obverse: LUCKY TILLICUM / REBUILD WITH ROOSEVELT
Reverse: PROSPERITY / 1933 / FOLLOW THE ROOSEVELT TRAIL
Appears to be silver-plated copper, is 27mm, and is somewhat worn.
Probably issued as a political token for the 1932 US presidential election.
And received this one more recently:
Obverse: LUCKY TILLICUM / REBUILD WITH ROOSEVELT
Reverse: A CENTURY OF PROGRESS / 1933 / CHICAGO / FOLLOW THE ROOSEVELT TRAIL
Issued for the 1933 Chicago Exposition or World's Fair which was named "A Century of Progress".
Now the big question is:
What is a "Tillicum"?

I had way over 100+ in all grades although I had a bunch of them in au thru 64. Here's a 65 that sold last week and now they are all gone
I never hoarded tokens before. I've hoarded early gold ( Had half a box of choice au and unc 1799 eagles once that wasn't for sale). Bought the 1st one for under 5k in au-58. Nobody wanted to buy them so I did.) A big dealer on the west coast started buying these tokens a year or 2 ago.
Coin's for sale/trade.

As they said in 1868, "vote the way you shot".

Thanks OnlyGoldIsMoney... Here's a slogan that's close
1866 Major General John White Geary, Campaign for Governor of Pennsylvania, 31mm Copper, struck by William H. Key
And here is the replacement piece, DeWitt/Sullivan number USG 1868-2, for the Grant medal that is shown above. This piece is "common" as these things go, and a few collectors are actually down on it for that reason. Still if you want one, you sometimes have to wait because it seems like they come waves. Sometimes they are all over place, and then they don't show up for a while. The first piece is one, USG 1868-1, of those "pull the trigger" items because you might not see one for many years if you don't pull out your checkbook when you get the chance.
