Dayton, Ohio (Montgomery County), U.S.A. amusement token. There is a misspelling on tokencatalog - listing states "VENDOR" instead of VENDER - so it would not have turned up with a search using the correct spelling. Error reported to tc.

I am not one to shy away from taking credit for my own work, but in this case, the ID was 100% @hondo! Well done.

Added: and I'm seeing that tokencatalog has already fixed the mistake that you reported.

Thank you, Spence and Coinfrog. I figured that it had to be listed because it's so distinctive. When a search for "reeloball vender" turned up nothing, I tried only "reeloball" and saw the error.

Ugh. My bad.

Funny thing is my brain was seeing and thinking Hondo, but the muscle memory in my fingers must have typed Spence.

No problem, jbuck! We all have those senior moments. Or at least that's what I've heard.
