Description

This Civil War token is cataloged as Fuld 185A-1A from Ohio. This Ohio version shares the same Fuld die number as the Indiana token (PCGS #644944), reflecting how the Fuld numbering system assigns die numbers by geographic section. The same die number can appear in different state sections when different states' tokens happen to use the same sequential numbering position. The Ohio 185A-1A represents a distinct token from the Indiana version despite sharing the same Fuld designation, as the state section differentiates them. The die combinations recorded in token catalogs document the production decisions of individual merchants and manufacturers, creating a record of commercial activity at the local level that complements broader economic histories. Ohio's extensive token production means that most die numbers in the state section are populated with multiple varieties.
