Description
767 - Lincoln 25 Mystery Raw VF Holed for suspension. Abraham Lincoln In God We Trust (around bearded bust right) // United States Of America For Ever Inseparable 1864 (around eagle). A somewhat mysterious token. It would appear to be a political campaign item from 1864 but was not listed in DeWitt or Sullivan while almost certainly known to them. This particular example lacks the 25 under Lincoln's bust that could be a denomination, the size is right for a Quarter and it is struck in Coin Turn rotation rather than Metal Turn. Consequently, some have suggested it is a proposed coin pattern. This is the only example we have seen without the 25 and while there are no obvious signs of removal there are marks in the area along with heavy wear making if difficult to tell if the 25 was ever present. White Metal 25mm. Similarly to King 878 and Cunningham 15-550W but without 25. (100-150)
