A complete collection of Maine Civil War Store Cards consists of only 2...both issued by R.(uggles) S. Torrey, of Bangor, ME, the inventor and patent holder of the Maine State Bee Hive. This is the slightly easier die pair to find, and the other variety (ME-100-A-1a) has an actual bee hive displayed, but this is still a very cool token. For absolute completeness, you will need a third example, but it is from these same dies, just struck in brass and with a reeded edge. It is quite rare.
