jailepouvoir New Member United States 4 Posts	Posted 05/06/2018 11:30 am Thanks for the replies. Does somebody have an idea of what the ''2624'' would be referring to? An old zip code? And would this be pre or post civil war? Thanks again Edited by jailepouvoir 05/06/2018 11:30 am Report this Post to the Staff

ExoGuy Pillar of the Community United States 4416 Posts	Posted 05/06/2018 2:10 pm to the CCF! IMHO, this is a 20th century issue, pre-1950. The prospect of attributing a token like this is slim. To my experience, mavericks like this will retail for maybe a $1. Report this Post to the Staff
Circus Pillar of the Community United States 3079 Posts	Posted 05/06/2018 4:29 pm The numbers can refer to the owner of the machine, the location of the machine. IT could be from a slot machine commonly called gum machines, fruit machines or an arcade style machine in a bar or saloon. Generally as been said it might be a one or two of. And unless somebody has family knowledge about granpop's machine biz it will forever remain a maverick token as been stated worth about a .50¢ to $1.00 unless somebody with those initials wants it bad they might pay $2.00 Report this Post to the Staff
