Okay, so I got some coins given to me by a good buddy of mine not long ago, and am still going threw them all and sorting them into my collection. Well, I came across this, New York Lyndenville Hotel Trade Token and, I know absolutely nothing what so ever about it, and so far... I haven't been able to find anything about it online either.. Does anyone know the date, or anything at all about it by chance?

Most likely from the hotel bar or eatery, from the 1920's to 1950's. you can check here http://www.tokencatalog.com/ has 19 pages of hotels for N.Y.

I did a quick check and I could find nothing about this token nor the establishment. May be unlisted.

I see a couple of these same tokens listed on the website http://m.qiuxiami.com, but no idea on value. Also, let @circus weigh in because he knows everything about tokens.

Added: ok nevermind, @circus already responded.

Locally to a history buff it will be worth more then in a coin store. Also on line sales tend to be over priced. They can be in a bargain bin for 50% off .25/75¢ generally they can go for $1.00 to $4.00 for its style and age. Unless it is tied to some famous event. it is what somebody will pay for it. In my case I wouldn't pay more than a dollar. Since it isn't local to me.
There are 1,000's of what are called mavericks out there, and since a couple are or have been for sale. There could be hundreds to thousands out and a bout.
