Capone1929 Posted July 21, 2018 Share Posted July 21, 2018 On 7/19/2018 at 3:58 PM, Just Bob said: I don't mind, especially since I got it for what I consider to be a good price. First, a little clarification: It is a Merchant Token, which predates the Civil War (I'm from Mississippi, so I cringe to call it that). It is actually the only Merchant Token from Mississippi in Russel Rulau's token book. This token was struck in several different metals, and it is hard to tell from those pictures, but this one appears to be a Miller 3, which is copper, or maybe a Miller 4, which is brass. If it is copper, it does not look like it has original surfaces, but since I have not seen an M3 for sale since I have been collecting them, I was willing to give it a shot. I have an M4 in AU that I bought years ago for around $100, and, even though those don't come up for sale all that often, right now, there are two for sale on Ebay . One looks AU, and is $150 plus $16.50 shipping , and the other is an NGC MS63, for $300. So, having said all of that, I got this one for $50, including shipping. Wow I will remember that! Merchant token, I stand corrected glad I know that now and learned something. Awesome merchant, pre-civil war very impessive win and find!

Just Bob Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 (edited) Nice coins, Ryan, Rollo, and Irvin. I received the token that I had posted previously, and it looks better in hand than in the seller's pics. It has definitely seen some circulation, and I still think it has been cleaned at some point, but it looks a lot less "messed with" than I was expecting. And, it is the plain-edge copper version, too. Seller's pictures first, then mine: Edited August 1, 2018 by Just Bob rrantique and LINCOLNMAN 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to my 50 greatest collected us coins guide, that's under graded, possibility should be resubmitted I've seen much worse with better grade!

How often does that happen? Not often enough for me. It does have a little gouge on the tail feathers which shouldn't hold it back. rrantique 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
