On the desk Of the secretary of one
of the oldest copper manufacturing
firms in this city is steel die which
has served as paperweight for 35
years, and the coins struck Off by it are
now, for the most part, in the hands OF
collectors. This die was used for strik.
ing copper tokens which symbolized
the contest between President Andrew
Jackson and the old United States bank

also made special feature of copper
coins, chiefly for South American coun.
tries and for private business firms
which made a practice of issuing their
own copper coins to be redeemed by
