Sutlers token

[fyrffytr1]

My brother has a sutlers token from the civil war that he needs some help with. It is a 5 cent one from the 1st Virginia Cavalry. It has the sutlers name across the top but he can only make out three letters and they are Jno. There is a spread wing eagle on one side and the information posted above is on the other side. It is about the size of a dime. Unfortunately I don't have any pictures available at this time. He found the token around Gettysburg many years ago. He now lives in Kentucky but has no access to a computer or any other way to send me a picture.

Thanks. I will pass the info onto him. If I can get a picture of it I will send it to this guy. Looks like it could be worth a little money!
