Hi coinquest

It my original answer, I posted a link to a museum that has some on display. I could not get a picture, but there was info on how to contact them about the items on sisplay. The collection was donated by a fellow named Byron Reed(see link below). Here's the link to the museum that houses a partial display of his collection. If you run a google search you will find them "mentioned" as being rare, but no pic's that I could find! Mike

Not possible as I don't have an MSN account

Very good !!

I would like to see the otherside !!

You can bring the image up by cropping the background out, thus allowing more KB's for the image !!

Good job !!

I tried to crop the pic for you, but I cannot repost the image, although I was able to do the process in my photo software, and can see the image quite good.

Coinquest,thanks for the photo's. This is the first one I've ever seen! I think most of the Union tokens were smaller denominations and store tokens of one sort or another. Ohio produced a lot of them. What are the words above "Confederate States of America" on the reverse? I can't make them out. Thanks, Mike

This was actually found in the 60's I believe around Mt. Carmel Illinois. The words are Nulla Patria Amictae Fidei on the ribbon. I was told it was a token, I just wanted to possiby gain a date and where and why it was made. Thanks for all the help, this has had me puzzled for quite some time.
