Temperance token

[BuckHill]

Dug this token at an old cellar hole this weekend along with a 1864 Indian. My other hobby is Beer league hockey this could be a sign!

That is a very cool and historic token, what a nice find! An early Indian Head Cent too, congrats!

Thanks LTS, it is in pretty good shape, thought it was gold at first

 

[hoser]

Oh very cool. That should clean up real well. Good going on the token and the IHP.

Hey I found one of those tokens once, if I remember correctly it was from somewhere around the 1840s? Could be wrong about that its been a while

 

[bluebird66]

Very nice!

 

[The Rebel]

Very cool find.

Love that token. Good job!

Nice job.

Tom, can you tell us the line between a "nice job" copper and a "sick" copper
From what I gather , anything older than a fatty is sick?....

I can believe IH's. Sure. Even fatty IH's. Sure. But LC's ? Nah.

I mean, mean, shucks, have't you noticed that if there's EVER show & tell of LC's here on this forum, that it's always east coast guys ? Isn't that ... uh ... a "little suspicious" ? If that doesn't smack of made up conspiracy, what else does ? And notice that they all suspiciously look the same !! Hence Proof that it's the same cotton picking 15 or 20 LC's and colonial coppers being staged for different photo's over and over and over. Eh ?

Maybe it's a higher level of skill on the east coast?
