It's from a West Virginia coal mining company.

It most likely reads: Good for ct (cent) in MDSE (merchandise).

Makes me want to sing "I owe my soul to the company store..."

Looks like the same mining company, with more than one company store. Good job, John!

Welcome to the CCF. Yes, you have some mining scrip (not scripT). This is a very popular form of exonumia. These are great research items for those who like to google! You can then attach some history and breathe some life into your tokens.

P.S. - The reverse notation that the OP cited as MOSE are likely MDSE which is an abbreviation for MerchanDiSE.

Does anybody want to see a picture of it?

And I forgot to ask, but about how much is it worth?

Rest in Peace

Is that better?

Sorry again about the glare.

Does anybody have a guess on how much it's worth?

Thanks!

There is no real price list, that are hard and fast as to prices as with any collectible here in SE Mi. that are going form $2.00 up to most I have seen @ the LCS are in the $6.00 to $10.00 range. As it has been said before it is only worth what somebody wants to pay for it.
