I have two tokens that I can not find any information about. I can not get the weight as I cant find my scale.

The first one is the R & B token. It is the same on both sides (Medal Alignment) is about 26mm in diameter.
It is not magnetic.

The second one has 570 on one side and 5 on the other (Coin Alignment) It is about 25.5 mm in diameter.
It is not magnetic, I think it is Aluminium.

Thanks for your help.

I looked up the 570 and found nothing. The other has WAY to many pages for me to go through. Maybe the R and B stands for room and board? Good luck and enjoy our great site.

They appear to be saloon tokens, that were given back as change instead of real coins when people paid in real money. the single sided one could mean that the saloon only gave out one value of token, or it could be a good for token that the patrons knew the use and value. Since no one would ever thing that any body would collect instead of using them.
The 570 could have been the address of the saloon along with the name. The 5 would have been a nickle, the cost of beer.
With out the state and city it could be very hard to get an exact match.
