mmallonee Posted October 5, 2017 Report Share Posted October 5, 2017 I cant seem to google anything that looks like this coin. It is dated 1873 under the eagle and under the liberty it looks to have been rubbed off. it's about 15mm in diameter and from what I see there are no mint marks or a vlaue stamped on it. Any info so I could search further would be greatly apprechiated. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mmallonee Posted October 6, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2017 The majority of feed back I have recieved thinks it's a token of some sort, or possibly "tou" money. I realize the pics are small and thats all I was able to do with what I have but I am able to zoom in and no there is no other stamping on the coin other than LIBERTY on her band and US of A 1873 on the reverse. I cant make out was was rubbed off under the bust on the obverse side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thedeadpoint Posted October 11, 2017 Report Share Posted October 11, 2017 Huh. I really like it. Doubtful it's a pattern, so it probably is a token. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
