    This is a coin I bought at a antique store , I have never seen octagon shaped CW tokens before. I've looked for this coin on many sites, it is no where to be found. I'm wondering if anyone has ever seen this type of token. The store has had it for at least 6 years. I metal detect for tokens in TN and I see repeat tokens and they are round, I have only found one that was square.

      This doesn't look like any original era Civil War tokens that I have seen before.

      Looks to be a cheaply made more modern fantasy creation.
