j ai trouve cette piece dans une boite de 10 lbs de monnaie du monde que j ai achete.Est-ce que cette piece est rare.Si je me fis au site numista que j ai decouvert en faisant une recherche sur cette piece,l indice de rarete est 97%...j aimerais bien avoir l opinion de collectionneurs plus aguerris que moi.
merci

Bonne question,

Mais je vous conseille de ne pas vous fier à l'indice Numista de rareté, qui est calculé à partir du nombre de membre qui ont la pièce en question dans leur collection.

Peut être la même compagnie que le Breton 629. Le 5¢ ressemble au Breton 628 sans les étoiles.

Désolé, je ne sais pas vraiment. Cherche sur google ou E-Bay.

J'ai trouvé ça sur E-Bay. C'est le même.

Le vendeur dit ceci

For sale, a SCARCE "RED FIBRE" 1c PENNY VARIETY "good for" trade token once used at the old "mining company store" operated by the "A.P.C. CORP"(American Potash and Chemical Co) in the desert town of Trona, California

The little mining company town of Trona, is oddly listed on internet as both INYO county and San Bernardino County California....located on old Searles Dry lake, south of Ridgecrest, east of Randsburg and not far from the entrance of Death Valley / Panamint valley. If you have ever been there...it always seems almost deserted....but was a company mining town for potash, etc. RECENTLY I SOLD THE 1C ALUMINUM VARIETY ON EBAY AS "BUY IT NOW"...OFFERED HERE IS THE 1C RED FIBRE VARIETY….A TOUGH ONE TO FIND THIS NICE

These old Trona tokens can be tough to find today. THESE EARLY "FIBRE" TOKENS ARE ESPECIALLY HARD TO FIND FROM MINING TOWNS….THEY CANNOT BE "METAL DETECTED" MANY YEARS LATER, AND DID NOT SURVIVE BEING BURIED IN A MINING CAMP "DUMP"…THIS IS A BEAUTY

Trade token is red fibre, round, about 21mm in diameter, and it displays nicely. (please see pictures in gallery) Token looks great.

While some old California desert mining tokens are found in "dug" condition, this specimen does not have that option, and is very nice

Neat PENNY "RED FIBRE" VARIETY token once used at a mining "company store" located in the little town of Trona California...mojave desert region on old Searles dry lake.

If you have ever walked the streets of trona california…….you WILL get this token.

Thanks so much for looking....collect and invest in history!!!!! Tangible assets are always the best ones.



Au final, il semble être un jeton rare et vendu pour au moins 30$ US
