<p>[QUOTE="enochian, post: 1683367, member: 39576"]"Question: I have a penny and the date on it is May 28,1926. On the front it reads One penny, has a gavel and a different symbol which I am unsure of. there is a design in the middle with the letters KSHTWSST in a ring. On the back side it reads Rainier Chapter No. 52 R.A.M. Constituted Seattle,Wa. May 28,1926. It also has a picure of Mt. Rainier. I wanted To know the history behind it, and What it is. Is it worth anything? <img src="http://www.coinsite.com/content/cdanswers/cda.gif" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> You have a Masonic Chapter "penny" actually a kind of membership card in the chapter that is listed on the token. The Masons are an old and venerable organization that has its roots in the time of the Crusades in the Middle Ages. There is a good collector market for Masonic Chapter Pennies. Value range: $5-$25.
