Coin / United States of America / 1861 / Unknown / Washington Tokens and Medals - Baker / Other / Varied

The coin in question is part of the Washington Tokens and Medals series, specifically dated 1861 and produced in the United States of America. While important details such as the diameter, weight, and mintage of the coin have not been provided—indicating they may be either unknown or not applicable—its classification as a "Mint Strike" suggests it was produced through the standard minting process, rather than being cast or struck in an unofficial manner. This coin belongs to the sub-type of "Coins" and is categorized under "Other / Varied" for its denomination, which implies that it may not fit into the traditional monetary categories typically seen in numismatics. The precise mint of origin is listed as "Unknown," which can sometimes add intrigue and rarity to a piece, as it may reflect a lesser-known minting operation or the uncertainties in historical record keeping. The 1861 mintage year places it within a significant period in American history, characterized by the Civil War, which might influence its collectible interest. Coins from this era often carry historical significance and may appeal to collectors interested in the broader context of U.S. history or Washington memorabilia. As such, this piece could potentially hold value to collectors, especially those who specialize in tokens and medals associated with George Washington or items produced during the American Civil War. The lack of specific quantitative details about weight, size, and mintage also indicates it may require further research or examination to fully ascertain its condition and value.
