Wowsers!  Nice pickups!  Now for a dumb question, are those considered CWTs or store cards?  I have an online reference guide for CWTs but don't see them listed.

No such thing as a dumb question :)

There are HTT's and HTT's Merchant Cards also,
CWT's and CWT's that are Merchant Cards and or Patriotic themes, Indian heads would be an example, then there are Merchant cards that are after the Civil War era.

In the above examples, the middle one is a HTT Merchant and the other two are CWT's that are Merchant cards also.
I used to have many Patriotic CWT's but sold most. I tend to like the Merchant cards as they are the business cards of today :)

While all of them are great examples, I like the Robinson token best.  It is fabulous.  : )
