These were found in a desk in the basement of a school in Blaine Washington.Google the Wooden Nickle Museum and read up on them. This is quite a find. I have the box from Blaine also.

I may have seen pics before, but it's very cool to see the first wooden nickels.
The fact they're signed/numbered is different from wooden nickels that came later.
I'm not too far from Blaine, I'll have to keep my eyes open for these.
