I got these today at a local antique store. I got the 1/2 Dollars for $25 each, the Ethiopian EE1889 1/32 Birr I got for $2, and the two tokens I got for $3 each. I know a little bit about the Civil War token, but I don't know much about the East River Bridge token. Can you guys help me with info and value? Thank you!

Reproductions of the "Two Cities" token exist: 1983 Souvenir Reproduction Medal of 1883 Medal for The Brooklyn Bridge Opening | eBay
but yours looks for real.
This medal commemorates the opening of the famous Brooklyn Bridge. "Two Cities As One New York & Brooklyn". Almost always found in white metal, but have also seen described in gilt and nickel silver.Although it is fairly common, it is rare to very rare unholed. Scarce, maybe very scarce. White metal, 35.5mm.
