oriole Pillar of the Community Canada 5253 Posts	Posted Today 8H 16M ago This was in the lot of love tokens I got. There is no trace of the original coin used, if it even was a coin. It weighs 14.4 grams and is about the diameter of a US silver dollar. There is an edge inscription: Alex McNeil John Hamilton No. 135. Assuming that this is from the northeast, where a lot of the tokens came from, this would be the St. Clair Lodge in Milton, Ontario. My initial limited search gave me nothing about the two people mentioned on the edge. I don't know enough about the masons to explain all the symbols or why 2 people's names are on the edge. All the masonic items I have seen that have a name just have a single name. Report this Post to the Staff

nickelsearcher Moderator United States 15496 Posts	Posted Today 6H 38M ago That is very interesting. We need a symbologist (is that a word?) to decipher what all those symbols mean. Take a look at my other hobby ... http://www.jk-dk.art Report this Post to the Staff
jbuck Moderator United States 189603 Posts	Posted Today 4H 20M ago My father and grandfather (mother's side) were Masons. I inherited all their Masonic related possessions, so I recognize many of the symbols. However, I do not feel comfortable explaining any them since I am not a Mason.
