Encased Franklin stamp token-C Sam Carlson-Chicago coin

   Listing this Chicago, Illinois dealer's token featuring a unused 5 cent Ben Franklin stamp encased in plastic on the front, and the copper reverse has the raised lettering and advertising of C Sam Carlson, Chicago, Illinois around the edge and the ad od Jenny Lind & Swedish coins and A.N.A. and number below that of 4162. Age unknown on this one? No reserve. Free Shiping. Measures 1 1/2 inches in diameter

  A very protective Ebay policman advised me that I tell you that this stamp in this advertising token is a 947(a)(Scotts) and not an earlier stamp. I hope you are buying the token and not the stamp. Anyone wishing to retract bids are more than welcome to do so of course. I didn't list it as a CW token and hope noone became confused?(I knew you didn't) Thanks, Fred

  * One last addition. My concerned "friend" has insisted I say the stamp was made in 1947 and is virtually worthless, in his words. I do not want anyone getting duped and he is afraid someone will pay too much for it. He is forgetting about the token itself and seems consumed by the worthless stamp. Sorry about this but he threatens Ebay Police if I do not comply. So who knows what he will do?..Thank you again, Fred
