With the exception of the observable scratches on the face surface, the token is in excellent condition. This "naughty bear spinner" would be better served by the following, taken from the Web site Tipsico Coin: "SOLD March, 2014 for $75. This actually a bit cheap, as COMPLETE, undamaged examples are probably worth more like $100, in my opinion. A famous, or perhaps infamous, souvenir of the 1915 PPIE: a spinner watch fob that when used as intended, shows what appears to be two copulating bears. Likely sold in the "Zone", the amusement park/midway that formed part of the grounds, where could be found all sorts of diversions and souvenirs, some of questionable nature as perceived by the standards of the time! These items are fragile as they are made of inexpensive metal, and typically found broken today - witness the endless parade of the center piece of this item sold on ebay as a "token" from the Expo. This is a nice sound piece, basically with just the original "antiqued" silvered surface worn off, and not easily found today as such."
