1880 Hawaiian 1 Real Token, AU53
Medcalf 2TE-6, Wailuku Plantation

1880 TOKEN Wailuku Plantation Token, 1 Real, AU53 PCGS. Medcalf 2TE-6. Struck by a blacksmith on Maui island at the Wailuku Plantation, these rare and popular tokens were issued in 1/2 and 1 real denominations -- undated in 1871, with similar tokens struck dated 1880. This 1880 1 real token was equivalent to 12 1/2 cents, or one-eighth of a Spanish dollar, the value of a Spanish 1 real piece. This is one of the finer pieces we have ever handled, with glossy and deep, reddish-brown color over smooth, lightly porous surfaces. The eye appeal is excellent. Listed on page 431 of the 2020 Guide Book.
