Strike Type
Coin Details
Description
This Civil War token is cataloged as Fuld 60B-2B from Maryland. The brass composition and "B" die variant distinguish this within the 60-series. Maryland tokens are prized for their border-state origin, and the 60-series encompasses Baltimore-area merchants who operated under the political tensions of a state where Union loyalty was enforced by martial law. American tokens document the intersection of commerce and material culture, serving as tangible evidence of business practices, economic conditions, and social relationships that conventional historical sources may overlook. Token production technology evolved from hand-engraved dies and manual screw presses to machine-cut dies and steam-powered striking equipment, with each technological advance leaving characteristic marks that help specialists date and attribute pieces. The second die combination pairs the 60B obverse with a specific reverse in brass.
