Need some help please!

I have this token from the 1939 NY's World Fair. Ive seen others with different designs but none with the Lord and Taylor design. Im having a very difficult time finding a price for this token. If anyone knows anything about this, it will be great! THANKS

thanks
its so frustrating no being able to find out any info on this

 

It may be a private issue that was handed out in the Lord & Taylor store during the fair. They're still around, so maybe an e-mail with an attached pic of the token to their company might bring an answer.

for lord and talor that is

 

I suppose an outdated reference is better than no reference at all. In Stephen Alpert and Lawrence Elman's "Tokens and Medals, a Guide to the identification and Values of United States Exonumia", 1st edition, 1992, they list the following New York World's Fair (1939-1940) items:

1. silver medal - $25 to $30
2. Palladium medal - $200
3. Other medals - $1.50 to $3
4. Store Cards - $2.50 to $5
5. Elongated cents - $1 to $2
6. Encased cents - $3 to $4
7. Large Lucky Pennies - $5 to $6

Sorry I don't have anything more recent.
