seadog New Member United States 2 Posts	Posted 02/12/2015 7:42 pm Hello all! I am new to the site and from a quick tour through I can see I'm gonna like it here. Have a question on a Abraham Lincoln coin commemorating the assassination of President Lincoln. Can't find much on line or in the books I searched. I looks to be made of brass or bronze, is about the size of a nickel. It is minted or issued by Lewis Joy New York. Anybody got any info on this coin? Report this Post to the Staff

MeadowviewCollector Pillar of the Community United States 4409 Posts	Posted 02/13/2015 2:01 pm I can't help with determining a value as to what it's worth. I'll ask the mods to move this to the tokens, medals and other exonumia forum--someone there may have an idea of its value. -MV Report this Post to the Staff
