Description: Shipping to Continental U.S. & Confirmed Addresses Only. No third party forwarders, please. Photos are the EXACT COIN that you will Receive. **** MEGA TROPHY COIN WITH MULTIPLE ERRORS AND AN AMAZING SORDID HISTORY !! *** JUST IMAGINE IF THIS COIN COULD TALK !!! AND TRY TO IMAGINE JUST HOW MANY HANDS, IN DARK, PRIVATE BEDROOMS, THIS TOKEN HAS GONE THROUGH, LOST IN BED SHEETS, STUFFED IN AWKWARD PLACES, DROPPED UNDER THE BED, AND GOD KNOWS WHAT ELSE ! **** FOUND THIS IN A RANDOM COLLECTION OF INDIANHEADS ! **** THIS HAS GOT TO BE A TRILLION TO ONE ODDS THAT ALL OF THESE ERRORS, AND ODDITIES ALL CAME TOGETHER ON ONE VERY HISTORICAL COIN. ALL OF THESE DIFFERENT FACTORS, ALL COMBINED, ON ONE SINGLE COIN CREATES A PROVENANCE ... SECOND TO NONE. NOW, BEFORE THE ' ARROGANT TROLLS ' AND 'KNOW IT ALLS ' START SENDING ME WISE-A$$ MESSAGES, LAUGHING AND BEING CONDESCENDING, TELLING ME THIS PIECE OF AMERICAN HISTORY IS WAY OVER PRICED - DON'T BOTHER -BECAUSE I AM WILLING TO BET, THIS IS A 'ONE OF A KIND ITEM'. I SERIOUSLY, CANT IMAGINE THAT THERE IS ANOTHER EXAMPLE, QUITE LIKE THIS, BEARING THE SAME LIST OF ERRORS ... AND THEN IT BEING CONVERTED INTO A BROTHEL TOKEN ... NOT EVEN POSSIBLE !! •1. TO BEGIN WITH ... IT'S A RARE AND VALUABLE COIN, JUST BEING AN 1867. •2. ITS A CRYSTSL CLEAR 1867 OVER A 67 OVER A 7 ERROR. ** TRIPLE STRIKE ** •3. THEN ITS STRUCK ON WHAT WOULD MOST LIKELY BE A BRITISH FARTHING PLANCHET OF THAT PERIOD. PLANCHET APPEARS TO MAYBE POSSESS MORE NICKLE, JUST BY FEEL, BUT IT MOST LIKELY IS BRONZE ... WHICH MATCHES A FARTHING. THE COIN WEIGHS 2.9O6 GRAMS VERSUS 3.11 GRAMS, MEASURES 20 mm VERSUS 19mm ... AND IT IS NOTICEABLY THINNER THAN MOST INDIANHEADS. ** ALL ATTRIBUTES, POINTING TO A FOREIGN PLANCHET. FARTHINGS WERE STRUCK IN LONDON, BUT ITS NOT IMPOSSIBLE THAT A PLANCHET OR COIN COULDN'T FIND ITS WAY INTO THE ' BLANK BIN ' IN THE U.S. • 4. ITS OFF-CENTER AND APPEARS TO HAVE TILTED IN ITS COLLAR FOR AN VERY UNEVEN STRIKE. EITHER THAT, OR A HEAVY GREASE STRIKE THRU ... OR ... IT WAS STRUCK ON AN EXISTING WORN DOWN AND IMPERFECT 'VICTORIA' FARTHING. ANOTHER ERROR. THE STRIKE ITSELF REALLY ISNT TOO BAD ON THE REVERSE, BUT THE COIN IS OBVIOUSLY CIRCULATED. I HONESTLY FEEL THE STRIKE WAS JUST VERY WEAK ON THE OBVERSE, VERSUS HEAVY WEAR. I WOULD PLACE THIS SPECIMEN IN THE VERY FINE RANGE, EVEN THOUGH, LIBERTY IS VIRTUALLY GONE .... ITS DUE TO THE STRIKE ... NOT HEAVY WEAR. • 5. AND LAST, BUT NOT LEAST, IT IS AN EXTREMELY RARE ARTIFACT FROM THE WILD WILD WEST. THIS IS WHAT IS REFERRED TO AS A ' CVNT COIN ' OR TOKEN, THAT WAS ISSUED BY THE MADAM OF A 'RED LIGHT HOUSE' OR 'BROTHEL' TO A PAYING CUSTOMER. SOMEONE, MOST LIKELY THE MADAM OR A REGULAR, WOULD GOUGE AND MODIFY THE 'E' INTO A 'U', ON THE BACK OF A ONE CENT INDIAN-HEAD. THE 'JOHN ' WOULD THEN SELECT THE LADY OF HIS EROTIC FANTASIES, BE LED UPSTAIRS, SERVICED, AND UPON COMPLETION, WOULD GIVE THE PROSTITUTE, AKA ... LADY OF ILL REPUTE, THE TOKEN BEFORE LEAVING. AT THE END OF THE 'SESSION',THE PROSTITUTE WOULD GIVE THE TOKEN BACK TO THE MADAM OF THE HOUSE, SO AS TO RECEIVE HER FEE FOR HER SERVICES. THIS KEPT THE ' LADIES ' HONEST AND GOOD, AND WELL BEHAVED, AND KEPT THE GIRLS FROM STEALING FROM THESE FINE ESTABLIMENTS ... LOL ... IF THAT'S NOT AN OXIMORON !! I'M AWARE OF THE VALUE OF CVNT TOKEN. I'M AWARE OF THE VALUE OF AN1867 / 67. I'M AWARE OF THE VALUE OF A STRIKE ON A FOREIGN PLANCHET. I'M AWARE OF THE VALUE OF VARIOUS MINT ERRORS. BUT ... ALL IN ONE PLACE, SAME COIN ... C'MON !! ... WE ALL KNOW, THESE VALUES COMBINED, GROW EXPONENTIAL !! $$$ I ASSURE YOU, THIS IS A MEGA-VALUEABLE RARE TREASURE $$$. ** I'M PUTTING UP SEVERAL CIVIL WAR TOKENS AS WELL, FROM A LARGER PRIVATE COLLECTION.SEE 'EM ALL !! * PLEASE SEE ALL MY COIN LISTINGS * PLEASE EVALUATE PHOTOS IN FULL BEFORE MAKING A BID OR PURCHASE!THANK YOU.
