    Description

    This very scarce (if not rare) uniface pictorial token or fob bears an image of the
    U. S. S. Maine
    , the U. S. battleship that sank in Havana Harbor during the Spanish-American War.  The reverse has no design or wording, with a 'pebbled' surface.  Noted token authority Russell Rulau catalogued this token as a Maine-Cube A token, numbered Non 5 ('Cube A' used due to site restrictions).  Rulau dated it to 1898 and indicated a brass composition.
    This token is holed as issued (likely originally a drop or fob on an event badge).  The diameter is
    approximately 21 mm (13/16")
    .
    This item is in very good overall condition with relatively light actual wear, signs of handling, toning, and soiling, and it remains bright.
    The illustrations in this listing are photos of the actual item being offered for sale, serving as part of the description.  NOTE:  This item is brighter than is evident in the photos.
