Got this off E-bay, thought it was cool
It was cheap, so I figured the Silver was worth it
Seated Dime,,,,,,,,,

Is this old/new or what??

Doublet,I looked in "Tokens and Medals",by Alpert and Elman, and they say your love token is worth $5-$8. But my book is the 1992 edition,and the value would be more 16 years later.
They say these love tokens,professionally engraved,were popular in the 1870's -1890's.
I think I see a "W","L",and maybe an "S". But that "S" might be a "G".
Good find!
