Buddy Rest in Peace United States 7075 Posts	Posted 12/23/2015 11:16 am Hi. It looks like there might be another letter between the W and the G. Is there an L there? Or an I? This might be some kind of merchant/store token. It would help a lot to know where it's from. Have you searched here? http://tokencatalog.com/ Report this Post to the Staff

I think it my be &. but that spots so worn off I cant be sure. Ive searched a few places and agree its probably a merchant token just cant figure out what it is. Report this Post to the Staff

Buddy Rest in Peace United States 7075 Posts	Posted 12/23/2015 1:01 pm Yeah, I can see what might be an ampersand or maybe an A. If you have some idea where it's from, a local historian might have some information. There were thousands of these made for local businesses and without knowing what part of the world it came from, it is pretty hard to narrow the search. Report this Post to the Staff
