Good morning,
Here is a Token - Camel cigarettes 20 Camel from 1913. 

I found it on numista.
 But do you know its value? Has it already been sold? I'm thinking of getting it graded.
THANKS !!!!

Saw a couple in Ma Shops for US $8.

Saw a couple in Ma Shops for US $8.

From this date? Because the ones I've seen are all from 1956 to 1959.
Have you seen any for sale on the internet from 1913?

One was from 1899 the other 1956.  The 1899 one was cheaper.

Yes because the one from 1899 was made in the 1970s. That's what I read. However, that of 1913 dates from the creation of the company and was used in Casinos to have packets of Camel. But do you have an example of a similar token from 1913 that was sold? I didn't find anything in France.🙄

On numista :

This one sold for $9.50: https://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/highly-valued-all-over-world-camel-4636685887

I doubt these were made in 1913 since that's when they were introduced and this is probably just a commemorating also from the 1950s

Camel cigarettes did not start till 1913. So there is a good chance that this token which may have a date of 1913 was not produced in 1913.

 

History from RJ Reynolds.

Referee for Exonumia from United States

Maybe made for the 50th jubilee in 1963.
