A new aquisition for my aluminum collection, a token from Abe Kosoff for the 1939 ANA convention in New York. Abe Kosoff owned a 1913 nickel, dealt with King Farouk, and was known as the Dean of American Numismatics. He was a founder of PNG, among many other accomplishments for our hobby.

I like your token and the history behind the scenes smile.gif

The neat part about this Kosoff token is that he copied the 1939 NY World's Fair emblems of the Trylon & Spere, in his initials. If you look at most any 1939 token, you'll see what I mean.
