[QUOTE="lordmarcovan, post: 3787810, member: 10461"]That's a token from the Shell Oil "Presidential" series, circa late 1950s. They were gas station promos, I believe. And I think there was a card which people could put all the tokens in, though I haven't seen one. I've dug four different presidents from this series over the years, while detecting. Fun finds. Interestingly, Washington was the first one I found. Like yours, some of the ones I dug came out of the ground in pretty nice condition.[/QUOTE]
