For sale, a  BEAUTIFUL....EARLY (BELIEVE 1900'S ERA)..."ONE MERCHANT" MINING GHOST TOWN (ONLY MERCHANT LISTED) WHICH SHOWS R9 IN HADDOCK (SHADED BLUE, BOOKS VERY HIGH) AND SHOWS R9 IN DUNN SCHILLING HOSKINS AS CATALOG SG-1 a nice trade  token once used as "GOOD FOR 12 1/2C IN TRADE" at the "SILVER -- DYKE -- MINES (believe a mining company store, and bar / club)"  in the obscure old ghost town of  SILVER DYKE, NEVADA

THIS IS A VERY SUPER RARE TOWN.....AND A COMPLETE GHOST TOWN TODAY....SITE LOCATED IN MINERAL COUNTY....IN MY OPINION ONE OF THE TOUGHEST COUNTIES TO FIND TOKENS / HUNTING LICENSES FROM....ITS A TOUGHIE

This token is terrific....have seen this token sell in the $350-375 range over the years.......both catalogs show this as R9....with Dunn showing "4 specimens reported" and Haddock has it shaded blue in latest revision.

THIS TOKEN HAS IT ALL......GHOST TOWN.....AND I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN TOLD, THIS TOWN WAS SO SMALL THAT LIKELY WAS USED AT THE MINE "COMPANY STORE" TO GET GOODS, OR EVEN A DRINK OR CIGAR......FOR EMPLOYEES OF "SILVER DYKE MINES"

The historic ghost town of SILVER DYKE is located in Mineral County...not far from the ghost towns of Candelaria and Belleville Nevada.....southeast of current day Mina Nevada

This is a very attractive old genuine Nevada ghost town mercantile token, and I track historic prices, and  have this  token sell for over $350, plus those ridiculous high "buyer fees" and $30 shipping some auction houses charge...again, this is a rare town

Trade token is brass metal, round,  about 21mm in diameter, and  displays nicely… (please see pictures in gallery) Has never been cleaned, beautiful desert chocolate brown background patina

Many Nevada tokens are in "dug" condition...this is a beauty,  tough one to find.  

EXTREMELY RARE (R9 IN BOTH CATALOGS) MINERAL COUNTY / WESTERN GHOST TOWN "ONE MERCHANT SITE" ANTIQUE 1900'S TOKEN once used at the "SILVER DYKE MINES (believe employee mine store / club bar)" token, once used in the obscure ghost town of  SILVER DYKE , NEVADA

Thanks so much for looking....collect and invest in history!!!!!   Tangible assets are always the best ones.
