    Description

    HK-894J, 1924 National Guard Encampment souvenir, one of the First World War related "Good Luck" tokens added to NGC's expanded list of So Called Dollars through the efforts of John Raymond (and to a certain extent myself).  VERY SCARCE TO RARE, I searched for a number of years to find any example, due to what I am sure was limited production as well as the tendency for such items to be thrown away once the original owner passed on.  Choice Almost Uncirculated, very light wear detectable from brief pocket use, nothing however what I would call a problem such as heavy marks or cuts.  Like ALL of the examples of this particular HK, the date was hand punched into the finished piece after it had been struck, and the original date effaced.
    My assumption is that the producer, likely Schwaab of Milwaukee, WI, took left over 1923-dated tokens, ground down the date area and punched in the "1924". As a result, each example is going to be a little different in terms of date placement.  Certainly worth consideration if you want a nice example, as almost all I have seen show marks or damage.  I am happy to combine shipping for multiple items – for best service please use the ebay Shopping Cart feature and ASK FOR A COMBINED INVOICE before payment, or contact me for a quote.
