<B>1863 Civil War Token, Fuld-60/200AO, R.8. Struck Over NY F-630W-1A, MS65 Brown NGC.</B></I> A rare die pairing, the obverse exhibits an Indian head surrounded by 13 stars and the date below. The slightly rotated reverse depicts a shield and anchor at the center with NEW-YORK above. A star is on each side and the date is separated 18 63 at the base. This was struck over a New York token, "Felix Dining Saloon," (F-630W-1A), that is clearly visible under the final strike. This is a Rarity 8 pairing with no other uses for the reverse die. The only other use of the obverse is with the 346 reverse die. A colorfully toned example with a variegated mixture of purple, cobalt-blue, sunset-red and antique-gold. The underlying fields impart a prooflike appearance. A highly interesting, exceedingly rare token with outstanding eye appeal.
