Not the Spoot token but a great example of a DIX token.

Love the Spoot.
Just makes this coin's message even more dramatic. Nice tokens.

Thank you guys. I have more but not as nice photos. The photos are not readily accessible either.

These coins are awesome, excellent condition. Very nice! The messages on them speak volumes about the people of that time. I agree it would take a tremendous error to increase value of coins of this stature. Was the word Spoot done on purpose? I'm just guessing, but I'd think with condition being the same, it's the more valuable of the two? Very nice rare coins, thanks for sharing them.

I believe Spoot is an error. There are a number of specimens available so it is barely scarce. There is another of the DIX tokens that is in demand and that is the 416a, in which the word Shoot is recut.
