Description: "Am I Not A Woman & A Sister." Original 1838 Copper Token, HT 81, Low-54. Measures one & one-eighth inch in diameter. Condition: This has not been professionally graded although it certainly looks pretty nice to our untrained eyes. Please rely on the photos. "In late 1837 the American Anti-Slavery Society, located at 143 Nassau Street, New York, commissioned the firm of Gibbs Gardner & Co. of Belleville, N.J. to strike copper tokens (HT 81, the Kneeling Female piece). The tokens probably cost the AASS about 50 cents per hundred, as they contained copper then worth 39.5 cents per hundred." ~Excerpted from The Standard Catalog of Hard Times Tokens by Russell Rulau, Ninth Edition, 2002).
