Civil War Token, Need Help! | 9/407 R7 Patriotic Token

I've seen the Army Navy reverse version online. I've only found one coin that matches this online and I've looked at over 8 Token websites. The 407 reverse is said to be R7 so that would be 11-20 total coins. I don't really know any more then that.

Thanks for the welcome! This site seems to be a great resource!

Yeah, I'm hoping to get some more info on this coin. I don't want to trade it away without knowing what I really have. Its hard to find info on tokens! I'm positive that its a real token though so I'm not worried about grading it. I got it in a jar of wheat pennies that had several semi keys in it and hadn't been searched so I feel pretty good about that

Over the years, I've owned three of these tokens. Although the Fulds gave this patriotic an R7, I'd say it's an R6 that borders R5. I've often seen this die pairing in auctions, on dealer price lists and at shows.

This specimen appears Fine to me. I've not seen one above VF, and an uncirculated specimen would doubtless fetch hundreds of dollars. IMHO, this is a $75 or so token in today's market. It has added collector appeal, given its mention of Lincoln.

Fuld attributes these dies to Henry Darius Higgins of Mishawaka, Indiana. Higgins also issued storecards. Higgins' tokens have long been labeled "Indiana Primitives", given their seemingly unprofessional style. This 407 reverse has better letter alignment than other dies made by Higgins.

Overall, this is a neat token, methinks, a worthy acquisition for any token collector. Nice find!

It sold for $89, I see. So, my guesstimate was about 20% low. Scarce tokens are bringing strong prices.
