1838 Am I Not A Woman Hard Times Token, HT-81, Low-54. VF-20, damaged. 1838 Am I Not A Woman Hard Times Token, HT-81, Low-54. VF-20, damaged.
Lot Title: 1838 Am I Not A Woman Hard Times Token, HT-81, Low-54. VF-20, damaged.
Description: The firm of Gibbs Gardner & Co. of Belleville, NJ was contracted by the American Anti-Slavery Society in 1837 to strike these copper pieces at an estimated cost of a half-cent each. Apparently damaged after being struck, it has acquired an attractive mahogany hue. A handsome and attainable specimen of an historic issue.

This lot may contain an item not certified by ANACS, PCGS, or NGC. While Scotsman Auction Co. is typically conservative in our descriptions of items not certified by one of these companies, we cannot guarantee our grading estimation will match their grade. We highly recommend that collectors seeking items certified by a third-party grading service only bid on items that have already been certified. No lot can be returned because of a variance in judgment with regards to grade.

Low Estimate: $80.00
High Estimate: $100.00
