Coin Details

Description

This Civil War token is cataloged as Fuld 700D-1A from Michigan. The "D" die variant within the 700-series indicates another obverse design. Michigan's multiple variants within the 700 die number demonstrate the depth of the state's catalog in this range. American tokens document the intersection of commerce and material culture, serving as tangible evidence of business practices, economic conditions, and social relationships that conventional historical sources may overlook. Token provenance research occasionally uncovers connections to notable collections, original merchants, or significant historical events, adding documentary value to individual specimens beyond their intrinsic numismatic interest. The secondary market for American tokens ranges from common pieces available for minimal cost to rare varieties and exceptional specimens that command substantial prices at specialized auctions. The first combination in copper is the primary version.
