What an epic hunt Saturday. We spent a good six hours hunting and this was the most epic unsuspected find. I knew I had a token in the field, but had no idea how rare it would be until I got home and started doing some research.

99 or less known to exist!! Amazing!!

SO COOL!

I was able to confirm with Tony Chibbaro author of the “South Carolina Token” book that this is indeed a SC-7A version with and rarity rating of R-4 with only 50-99 known to exist. 🤯

i'm sorry but with 50-99 of these things known to exist. I feel like it deserves a banner. Also the OP confirmed it with what looks like a very knowledgeable token expert, I think 43 votes is low. So im bumping it during high traffic hours. I feel like once it gets on the second page of today's finds its forgotten about.
