$289.00

Famous "Hard Times"/store card issued by Chicago Jeweler C. D. Peacock adverting the firm. Struck circa 1900 bearing the date 1837, by the Gorham Company of New York, a mintage of 10,000 reported. Listed in Rulau as HT-M19; Low 366 as a quasi-Hard Times Token. Always popular as a cross collectible issue. Uncirculated, certified NGC MS-62BN, showing light signs of handling and some very light touches of verdigris, however most of the "hard", reflective underlying Copper surface is still visible. Undoubtedly put aside as a souvenir at the time of issue and stored under less than ideal conditions, however no major problems such as spots, etc. commonly found.
