<p>[QUOTE=&quot;John Johnson, post: 3117675, member: 96020&quot;]A little confession.&nbsp; Right after I bought the coin (I bought it from an antique shop) I took it to a coin shop and asked the owner if he knew what it was.&nbsp; He said it was &#039;probably a gaming token.&#039;&nbsp; I didn&#039;t think he knew what he was talking about.&nbsp; Turns out I was wrong.</p><p><br /></p><p>Anyway, I just put the coin in a cookie can I have full of tokens and nonAmerican coins.&nbsp; There are about 1,000 coins and tokens in that can.&nbsp; I occasionally open it, but not very often.&nbsp; I started thinking about that coin a few days ago, after joining this site, so I dug through the can and found it, and took a couple of pics to post this.&nbsp; Well, as soon as I posted, I saw that word simcox at the bottom.&nbsp; I had never noticed that before.&nbsp; So I googled it and found out that the guy at that coin shop so many years ago was correct.&nbsp; It was a gambling token.&nbsp; I decided to keep my post up, anyway, because I thought it might generate some interesting comments. </p><p><br /></p><p>I found one on ebay today.&nbsp; The seller is asking $50, but it is graded XF details by NGC and in much better condition than mine.&nbsp; Mine might actually be worth a few dollars, though.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
