Need info on this Crystal River Rock Co. token (rarity, age, etc.)
Unable-To-Find-Info-On-Crystal-River-Rock-Co.-Token Unable-To-Find-Info-On-Crystal-River-Rock-Co.-Token

Several have referred me to the TokenCatalog. The one listed there is not the same token as the one I'm seeking info on.

Hi lloyd, it's listed on tokencatalog.com but no information about it.

@lloyd, from your title on this thread, it looked like you were interested in finding out more about this token. Maybe you can explain a little more about your specific request. For example, are you only interested in the company that issued these tokens or something else? Thx for clarifying your question.

Also, since this specific token isn't pictured over on tokencatalog, please consider submitting pics to that site to help improve their database.

Here is an auction of the same token - I didn't login to get the details
https://www.invaluable.com/auction-...c-7fe4f8ab43

I also found a short bio of the President of the company Govan George Ware
http://franmuse.com/lake/lcbio/lcbiogw.html

And also in blurb talking about Jonathan Yates Clark who was also an officer and the purpose of the company;
"J.Y Sr. also owned the first automobile in Leesburg and liked it so much that he opened a Ford agency and sold Model T's throughout the area. He was also a watermelon grower of note, served as a Leesburg city commissioner and, with G.G. Ware, bought the Crystal River Rock Co., which furnished materials for roads."
