Antique Victorian Era 'Love Token' Coins- Seated Silver Dimes, Indian Head Penny And RARE 3-cent Piece

A practice during the Victorian Era, referred to as 'LOVE TOKENS'. When a soldier went to war or away for a long period, an authentic minted coin would be presented by his love interest/wife, with her name or initials carved into the coin's reverse [or vice versa]. The Indian Head penny has a dedication from 'Maud', dated 1892. 1887 and 1875 silver seated dimes, with jeweler-done dedications [more refined], and lastly a RARE 1860s silver 3-cent piece, with crescent moon decoration [possibly soldier related]. A fine grouping.
