Hard Times Tokens
New York--Troy. Undated (1835) N. Starbuck & Son. HT-366, Low-156, W-NY-1740-10a. Rarity-5+. Copper. Plain Edge. VF-25 (PCGS).
28 mm. Struck offset from medal alignment by 90 degrees clockwise. Boldly defined despite a touch of softness along the left obverse and upper reverse borders, this handsome piece is warmly and evenly toned in deep copper-brown. The surfaces are remarkably smooth overall for a moderately circulated example of this challenging type. Very Fine is a typical grade for a survivor of this scarce HT number, and the present example would fit comfortably into many collections.
