This coin belongs to the series of Merchant Tokens known as Rulau, which were produced in the United States of America during the year 1849. The specific minting details are unknown, and it is categorized under the sub-type of coins, although it does not conform to standard denominations, being labeled instead as 'Other / Varied.' Noteworthy is the lack of specified measurements, as both its diameter and weight are recorded as '0.00000000', indicating potential issues with the preservation or recording of the coin's physical characteristics. Furthermore, the mintage for this particular token is reported as '0', suggesting that it may not have been officially produced or could be extremely scarce. Despite these ambiguities, Merchant Tokens like this one often carry historical significance and collectible value, representing commerce and local economies from the mid-19th century in America. Their rarity and connection to local businesses and historical contexts can make them valuable to collectors and historians alike.
