Cent - Civil War Merchant Token - E.W. Atwood Book Dealer (Bridgeport, Connecticut) , United States

Obverse: Liberty (coronet head) facing left, surrounded by 13 stars, with date below, Reverse: Heraldic eagle with Union shield holding 3 arrows and an olive branch, 13 stars, rays and motto above

Obverse: The "Flowing Hair" Liberty head on the right, and the vintage. This design was not well received by the public, as flowing hair was considered daring for its time., Reverse: The face value (in words and fractions) surrounded by a chain. This design wasn't well received either, as the chain didn't give the impression of freedom. That's why it was later replaced by a plant crown.

Obverse: Bust 3/4 right, Reverse: Sarah seated at desk as personal secretary to James Polk
