1911 Token Waldo C. Moore Copper 31mm

Coin Details

Description

This 1911 copper token at 31mm diameter was issued by or commemorates Waldo C. Moore. The copper composition and substantial 31mm size suggest this was produced as a personal commemorative, advertising piece, or recognition token. Personal tokens were common in the early twentieth century, issued by individuals for various purposes including advertising professional services, commemorating achievements, or serving as calling cards in numismatic circles. Without additional catalog references, this token falls into the category of personal issue pieces that document individual Americans who chose medallic art as a medium for self-expression or business promotion. The 1911 date places this during the Progressive Era, when American civic and commercial life was vibrant and tokens served many social and commercial functions.
