Description: WINNER GETS AN UNUSALLY RARE OPPORTUNITY TO GET A COMPLETE SET OF WOOD CORD TOKENS. YOU GET ALL 4 SHOWN FOR YOUR ONE WINNING BID. MOST WOOD CORD TOKENS WERE MADE IN THE MID TO LATE1800s. FOR THESE, I DO NOT HAVE A DATE OF MANUFACTURE. THESE TOKENS CAME IN 1/4, 1/2, 3/4, AND 1 FULL CORD OF WOOD. THIS AUCTION INCLUDES 1 EACH OF THESE DENOMINATIONS, THUS MAKING A FULL SET. IT IS NOT LIKELY YOU WILL FIND A FULL SET OF THESE ANYWHERE ELSE.EACH OF THESE 4 HAVE BEEN PROFESSIONALLY RESTORED AND RECONDITIONED BY NGC.THE PRICE IS AT WHAT IF BELIEVE IS A FAIR PRICE CONSIDERING THE RARITY AND COLLECTABILITY OF THESE NICE OLD TOKENS. IF YOU LOOK AT WHAT OTHER RAILROAD TOKENS SELL FOR THIS PRICE IS VERY, VERY REASONABLE.WOOD CORD TOKENS WERE GIVEN TO PEOPLE WHO SUPPLIED WOOD TO THE RAILROADS AND COULD LATER BE EXCHANGED FOR THE MONEY VALUE OF THE WOOD. THIS WAY, RAILROADS DID NOT HAVE TO CARRY MONEY ALONG THE WAY TO BUY WOOD TO RUN THE TRAINS.THESE ARE SOLD AS IS WITH NO RETURNS. I HAVE NO IDEA IF THESE ARE ORIGINALS FROM CIRCA 1850-1900 OR IF THE MAY BE REPRODUCTIONS. EITHER WAY, THEY APPEAR TO BE EXTREMELY RARE. IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS, ASK BEFORE YOU BUY AND I WILL ANSWER TO THE BEST OF MY ABILITY.ALL INFORMATION IS FROM SOURCES BELIEVED RELIABLE BUT IT CANNOT BE AND IS NOT GURANTEEDAN ADULT SIGNATURE WILL BE REQUIRED FOR DELIVERY.
