    Description

    Civil War Token - NYC Staudinger’s Confectionery Store Card. Attribution: NY-630-BS- 1a Rev. 1375 (‘Guidebook of Civil War Tokens’ by Bowers).
    This is a great example of an early Roloff large token! The Reverse 1375 E. Pluribus Unum die, which seemed cramped at the 6 O’Clock position, was wisely swapped out for the 1376 die before the vast majority of Staudinger Cards were struck. This apparently uncirculated 1375 with the less common 1a Obverse is a tough one to hunt down!
    You will receive the exact token in the photos. Good luck bidding😊
    Provenance: From the lifelong collection of William
    Garrett Hodges (1946-2014). Hodges was a Virginia-
    based dealer of fine arts, with specialization in prints
    and rare books, having collected for decades. He
    supplied and consulted various groups on antiquities
    throughout his career, including the White House, the
    Vice President's residence, the FBI, and multiple film
    and television projects.
