Default 3 tokens

Pappy I could use your help here! I have tried to do a search on these 3 tokens and nothing comes up! I am posting these for my brother. He was wondering if you have any information on these 3 and what they might be worth! Hope you can help!

Thanks
Pat

The loop helped a little but I don't know if there is going to be much I can give in info... this one is pretty worn.

All I could make out on the front...left side-Memphis-Right side-Russel
There are a few more letters but just couldn't make it out.
On the front...Looks like a little man with a hat.

Back side...Top-Sell...Below this is a (&) symbol
Below the symbol...a few letters-Imber
Toward the bottom...City Propert
Below this looks like...Collect

This is about all I can make out of this one.
May just be to worn to figure out!

Thanks for any help
Pat

Pat : just an idea? try metal dye to bring out the letters if its not to pourus the dye will come off with solvent made to remove dye the dye is used for layout work on metal (its blue dye) & drys fast..... H H Jim

Default How about making a negative?

Sometimes making a negative of the picture will bring things out. Or messing with color, contrast, and brightness.
