Thanks, Princetane. For those who don't know, Civil War tokens were struck by private makers, in part, to help relieve a shortage of circulating cents. Some had a patriotic theme, and others served as business cards (or store cards). I find this one interesting too. 1863 Civil War store card, NY-695A-2a Marshall Fishing Tackle and Rare Coin, Oswego, New York:

Quote: Ace I have to ask what is the grade on those 2 coins The 1864 Indian I bought as a Proof 64RB in a SEGS holder at a considerable discount because of the holder. I sent it into NGC for a better holder, and they sent it back PR details "altered color" (which I don't see, and have actually seen much worse in straight graded holders) The 1864 2C is graded MS 64 RB by PCGS.  One for today.....
