Coinsarefun’s Tokens and Medals – coinsarefun
Here is a collector who proves that you don't need to build a specific set to have a great collection. Her "set" features a wide array of tokens and medals including classic Hard Times and other 19th century merchant tokens, Civil War tokens, Political/Campaign tokens, Bolen medals, gaming tokens, So-Called Dollars and more. But here's the rub: they are all tokens and medals that will immediately catch your eye. This collector has a strong taste for artistic medallic works, as most of her collection has well-executed busts or are pictural in nature. Every piece has a beautiful design or great story behind it. It features curiosities like "no pleasure can exceed the smoking of the weed" and "boy and dog". The highlights include three colorfully toned store cards by John K Curtis, E. Hill, and Carrington & Co. that also have designs coveted by collectors. Forget a complete set of Lincoln cents, this collection is sure to excite collectors and non-collectors alike with history, art, and quality of selection.
