    Hello Everyone

    It seems as though the Token was not thrown in the trash after all, My Dear sweet loving wife came up with it!!!

    Any ways,, any info on this type of thing would be appreciated,, I have looked extensively on the net to find similar but have had no success,, all of the tokens that I have found mention a specific post exchange or various other establishments where they were redeemable, this has no such inscription.

    I found this one while metal detecting here in my local area,in what may have been a calvary campsite,, This token shows signs of having survived a fire at some time, whether it was a campfire or a structure I cant be sure.

    This area was the site of many scrimishes between the buffalo soldiers and the Mescalero apache indians,the modern day reservation is a few miles from where I found this token,, I have also found buttons and other things from that era in this site , which is how Ive been able to place an approximate time on it.

    I think Ive managed to post a picture!!!

    Thank You !!

    It's a modern amusement token. Probably from the 1930's. It's a fairly common type.

    I have simular amusement tokens. Not exactly the same, but with the hole in the middle, and simular lettering.

    I agree, this is modern, and not from the 19th century.
