Hit a couple of late 1800's places with a buddy yesterday. He pulled out a 1923 merc dime and a 1908D Barber dime with his Deus, and I found all of this :
Edit: The token on the lower-left reads, "Fred, Bob, & Andy St Paul, Minn" and "Good for 2 1/2 Cents in Trade" on the reverse. I haven't been able to find anything about "Fred, Bob, & Andy". I know that the US stopped minting half-cents in 1857, so am I right in assuming that mean that the token would be from around that period? The property that was found at was built in 1880, and but the area was settled as early as 1843.
