New York NY630AS-1b NGC MS-64 - C. Magnus' Printing Establishment

Description: Civil War Store Card for Charles Magnus' National Printing Establishment in New York CityFuld NY630AS-1b (brass) R-3 NGC MS-64 ex Tanenbaum and Fuld Plate token for both dies in the 3rd edition store card bookCharles Magnus owned the National Printing Establishment, a printing and publishing company. Products included books, maps, scenic prints of North American cities, song sheets, and playing cards. During the Civil War, the company's products included patriotic letterheads, envelopes, and battle scenes that were usually printed in color. The fourth photo is a digital image of one of the patriotic envelopes. This token has an implied value of two cents since the reverse claims that 100 tokens can be redeemed for a $2.00 View of New York City. This referred to one of his printed city scenes - the Large Bird's Eye View of New York City which was sold in three different poster sizes with the $2 version being the smallest of the poster sizes. The last photo is a digital copy of the View of New York City. Only the token shown in the first three photos is being sold in this listing. It is an attractive, high quality specimen that was previously in the collection of Steve Tanenbaum as noted on the slab label. This token is the plate token for both dies in the 3rd edition store card book. The pictures in the book, taken before the token was slabbed, are accurate and do a better job of illustrating the beauty of this token.Shipping is free. Should this token fail to meet your expectations, it can be returned within 30 days for a full refund. Sales tax, if applicable, is collected by Ebay and submitted directly to state authorities. We appreciate your business!
