Hello,

Was wondering if anyone had any information on my " Corto Rothschild Cigar " token I pulled from an Adelaide Park land last night? Next to no information on line.

Apparently the name "Rothschild" is used with cigars as a generic term, referring to a particular style/size of cigar, rather than any particular involvement by the famous banking family:

Also, the word corto is Spanish for "short", so Corto Rothschild Cigars is a descriptive name. Presumably it was also a brand, as evidenced by the existence of tokens.

I have been trying to find a value for 20+ yrs so I will take the$500 as value for a rough token. My token is very fine so does that mean it's worth $800?

Only if you can find a sucker buyer! 😅

Actually, the premium for condition with rare coins can be very high. The right collector might pay $1,000+, but finding that 'right collector' is the hard part. I'd guess that a US auction is probably the best marketplace for it.
