<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GeorgeM, post: 1477139, member: 28550&quot;]Looks like a tram token. I picked one almost exactly like that up recently.</p><p><br /></p><p>After visiting the Saint Louis Transportation Musuem, it occurs to me that some of those tram / trolley tokens may date back into the early 19th century. Around that time, it was apparently common to see mule drawn trolleys on the streets of many major cities. Not sure about the era for that token though. I would presume 1910&#039;s to 1960&#039;s though, and depending on it&#039;s size (less than a dime, I suspect) with the smaller tokens used towards the end of the ear and nickel or quarter sized pieces dating to earlier.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
