If you check a Victorian manual of etiquette, It expressly forbids for gentlemens' hats to be set down with the brim upwards. It should always be brim down, crown up.

 

The American troops were not gentlemen and the top hat down formed a portion of the squadron insignia of Eddie Rickenbacker's unit in World War One when he became an ACE.

This is #2 of a set that I am trying to find. The reverse is the same as the 1970 Sesquincentennial of Maine.

I believe these are done in bronze and aluminum.
I have a few more to find.

 

Here are two toll tokens from the segment of I-95 that runs north of Baltimore northeast to the Delaware line. I've been driving that highway since 1987 and don't remember tokens ever being used, let alone ones for official use. Obviously one of them is from before the renaming, which seems to have happened in 1963 or very soon after.
