Default One for Pappy and one for Creekrat

Hey Pappy, here's one that I found quite awhile ago and just found again looking for a company store token for Creekrat. Any idea what it is?





Creekrat, here's the company store tokens from Coalwood, I forgot that I had 2, a pleasant surprise!

Really interesting pieces. In some respects it carries more intrigue for me than a 1900 something that was minted by the tens or hundreds of thouseands.
