Hi everyone....I'm a new register to this fine website and wanted to post some pictures from the farm Greg and I hunted in SW PA. Greg is currently researching where these came from and the history of them!? Greg really know's his stuff and I was impressed with the wealth of knowledge he has with coins, detecting, etc.

Enjoy the pics and comments welcome!
God bless America!

John,
Probably was 1 cent through $1 made from them trade tokens.
I've heard of hoards of them type of tokens being buried (to get rid of them) after the store went out of business. He probably gave them tokens to the small kids to play with. I bet there are many more waiting to be dug :)
