Anti-Andrew Jackson Supporting Martin Van Buren
Token
This token was made by the
Scovill Manufacturing Company of Waterbury, Connecticut around 1834. The
Scovill Company was established in 1802 as a button manufacturer that is still
in business today. Scovill was an early industrial American innovator,
adapting armory manufacturing processes to mass-produce a variety of consumer
goods, including tokens. This “hard times token” mocked President Andrew
Jackson for his economic policies.
Obverse: Andrew Jackson popping out of a chest
holding a money bag and a sword. Legend: I TAKE THE RESPONSIBILITY.
Reverse: Donkey with label “LLD.” Legend: THE
CONSTITUTION AS I UNDERSTAND IT, ROMAN FIRMNESS and VETO.

Martin
Van Buren 1841 Daniel Webster
Credit Hard Times Token
What a fabulous hard
times token! This authentic anti Van Buren political satirical token features
on the obverse the ship Amistad and reads: WEBSTER CREDIT 1841 CURRENCY. The
reverse features Amistad and reads: VAN BUREN METALLIC 1837 CURRENCY.
La Amistad was a 19th-century two mast
schooner of about 120 feet (37 m). Built in the United States, La Amistad
(Spanish for 'friendship') was originally named Friendship but she was
renamed after being purchased by a Spaniard. Strictly speaking, La Amistad
was not a slave ship; she was not designed to transport large cargoes of
slaves, nor did she engage in the Middle Passage of Africans to the Americas.
Obverse says "Millioins for Defense" - "Not One Cent
for Tribute"
