Civil War token

[ElleKitty]

I picked this token up today as well.  It reads "The Federal Union It must and shall be preserved" on the obverse, and on the reverse "Army and Navy."

I love this piece, it's beautiful and speaks so eloquently of a time when we had a far greater love for our country than we do now. 
However, I know so little about tokens.  Can someone help me identify this one properly?  I would be grateful.

Miss Kitty, looking at the Standard Catalog of United States Tokens 1700-1900, 2nd edition, on page 414 I count TEN different varieties of your Civil War token. It might take some time to figure out exactly which one you have, and it's possible rarity, as I am not an expert on these tokens. I'll keep digging around. Maybe someone more knowledgable than I can figure it out before I do!!! Regards, John

It's a Patriotic token as opposed to a store card that would have a merchant's advertising on it.

The North may have had a lot of love for union but not a lot faith in winning the war. Tokens were issued because coins were being pulled from circulation and in some cases even sent into hiding down in South America.

I like the color on that token...it looks original and has a lot of character.
I won't take sides on the other part.

Not sure how I missed this most fascinating post on CWT, I only have one that has a Scottish theme, but these tokens are so overlooked as little mementos of this era, there are some very strongly themed ones that one might question the veracity of the statements made on them nowadays, but then they were perfectly understandable given the condition of the time.
