I've seen those before. What exactly were masonic pennies used for?

Some of the more interesting Masonic Penny Tokens are those issued to and personalized by individual Masons. This personalization is typically found in the center of the HTWSSTKS. These examples are unique and can be tied to a specific individual within the organization.

Some are easy to identify such as these which bear the recipients name.





Others use only symbolism. These must be researched through Lodge records.





The more "customized" the better.

To be continued. Only 10 images allowed . . .

 

How about this behemoth that weighs in at over 10 ounces.

I'm fairly certain the date of the cents is important to those who created this one.
