Dr. Lewis Feuchtwanger's cent tokens appear regularly at auction, but his three cent tokens are considerably scarcer. This luminous pearl-white example displays even wear and a couple of lengthy hair-thin pinscratches on each side, perhaps from an attempt to ascertain if the piece was silver-plated. Ex: Eric P.
