    I picked this up today at our local coin club meeting. It weighs apx 13.4 grams and appears to be pretty old. It has a nick in the rim as pictured but I was wondering if anyone knew anything about the token or what it might be worth, Thanks for any help.

    From Google there was a DL Auld Mfg Co in Columbus OH and in 1899 sorority book a DL Auld is mentioned as designing some kind of convention button (or token) for Phi Delta Theta or some such (short-term memory is clearly shot). The crude (racist?) art makes me think it's from several decades ago. Not much but MHO.

    I am unable to help as this token is not listed in my Ohio token book (but then I did not expect it to be as it is not a good for), nor in Rulau's token ref.

    That is an interesting token though. I don't believe I have ever seen one quite like that before.

    Thanks for the info so far I am still trying to research it but I have had little luck. I took it to a few dealers and neither of them had ever seen a token like it either. If I do find anything out I will post the info.
