Love tokens on cents or large cents are quite unusual, and this is an exceptional one!

I have a few love tokens and yours is the nicest by far I have seen. The ones I have are initials carved into the reverse with no color. Although the carving is nice, I would throw them out if I had yours. I'm sure someone would pay you good money for that

Well we will find out

Just listed online, curious to see what it will bring, I agree it's a beautiful piece but I have little to no interest in this aspect of collecting...

Should be fun to see what it goes for!

I was very happy with price considering it came in a lot of 2,000 world coins!

Engraved, plated, enameled.
Unless the bail spins to show the history on the back they could've easily done this to a normal piece of copper without wasting a coin.

Off-topic: Last week I met a jeweller who puts Canada pennies in cufflinks...and POLISHES THEM. Shunned.

I have a friend who does this: http://www.sjcoinclub.com/2013/07/2...-designs-co/

That was a very nice love token.
