Guest jjr Posted May 5, 2004 Posted May 5, 2004 I have a coin dated 1861. The obverse of the coin is identical to the Coronet half cent. The reverse is totally smooth. They didn't make the half cent in 1861. Anybody know what it is? Thanks. Quote
kuhli Posted May 5, 2004 Posted May 5, 2004 Sounds like it might be a Civil War Token (CWT), but I am not familiar with these, so I cannot offer any more help. Quote
william Posted May 5, 2004 Posted May 5, 2004 A diameter may help please... What is a coronet half cent?? Quote
Guest jjr Posted May 5, 2004 Posted May 5, 2004 Here are some pictures attached.. I hope they come out. Quote
Chris Perkins Posted May 5, 2004 Posted May 5, 2004 That looks like a German made jeton type piece, what do you think Edward/Kuhli?The picture is small, but even to an untrained English eye, it really doesn't look real. Quote
