- Connecticut. 18th Connecticut Infantry Regiment. Undated (1861-1865) M. Kingsbury. 25 Cents. Schenkman CT-18-25B (CT-A25B), W-CT-100-025b. Rarity-9. Brass. Plain Edge. AU-55 (NGC).
21.4 mm. Glossy and hard olive-brown surfaces with just a trace of natural debris noted in some of the peripheral recesses. Fairly well struck on the thin flan with traces of the heavy die finishing lines still seen in the fields. A fitting start to this remarkable offering for its pleasing quality-an attribute that will be seen throughout this outstanding collection of sutler tokens. This is the only known Connecticut sutler, and just two denominations were issued. This is comfortably the rarer of the two.
Provenance: From the Bill Kelly Collection of Civil War Sutler Tokens. Earlier from the Byron Hoke Collection; Presidential Coin and Antique Co., Inc.'s sale of December 2003, lot 211. Lot tag and collector tag with attribution and provenance notes included.
