A good friend got Mason coin date 1804 or 1809 that the type that should have been in the master coffin if I am correct. But son may have used as pocket coin. I will get Photos posted asap
Masonic "pennies" (coins) are not usually dated. Some have the year or date the lodge was founded. This is a "Masonic Penny", made for members of the Berkeley, California RAM Masonic lodge. Masonic Penny, Berkeley, California, RAM Chapter 92 The date on the token, April 18, 1906, was the date the lodge was founded, which happened to be a rather significant date in the city of San Francisco, where the Grand Lodge was having a convention.
No I have seen and have one. This one is one only a head master would have. The engraving on it is not like any token I have ever seen. Should have been on him in.his grave. Cp
I also have one from Albany Ny like this one On the top you can see were a lop was removed I may be of on the last 2 numbers in date. I hope to get photo today. Cp
If by significant you mean a major earthquake and fire consuming major parts of the city and over 3000 dead, then yes it was significant. They refused to cancel or postpone the convention.
The last one looks like a generic brass token. Some are worn, very worn, from being carried around by members as pocket pieces. This one is very worn: Masonic Penny, St. Louis, Missouri, RAM Chapter 1 Obverse: MISSOURI (dot) CHAPTER No 1. R.A.M.
