QUERY: NAMED WOODWARD OCTOBER 1864 SALE SOUGHT

George Polizio writes:

I'd like to ask our readers for a little help. I was hoping someone has a named auction catalogue from W. Woodward from October 1864, and if they do can they tell me who the buyer(s) were for lots 2336, 2337, 2338, and 2428.

I am researching a token that was struck to the order of J. Osborn Emery by George Lovett using dies that Lovett had used earlier to strike tokens for Augustus Sage. I just purchased a token from John Kraljevich that is a muling of Washington's Headquarters at Valley Forge with Washington's Headquarters at Tappan. The token is copper and has a reeded edge. In the Woodward cat. he lists pieces in copper, brass, tin and silver. Woodward is vague as to how many were struck for Emery, but the token is pretty neat!
