Hey everyone,

A couple days ago I posted in Today's Finds about a token I found. On the front it read "Norm Sadler U.S. Navy" and on the back it reads "Nat. Park Spokane".

Well, with the help of some folks on TNet I found out that it was most likely made at a custom token machine at Natarorium Park in Spokane, WA before it's closure in 1968.

I did some research online and found that there is an 80 year-old man named Norm Sadler who lives a few hours away from me. I sent him a letter today describing the token and inquiring if it might be his.

I'll let you know what I hear back!

I love this hobby because of what you find, the people you meet, and the stories you end up with.

Thanks for reading!
