    Holy crud Mike! That token is not only nice but pretty rare.

    I vote banner!

    http://www.hakes.com/item.asp?Auction=193&ItemNo=61545

    1" brass with profile silhouette portrait of Buck. Front reads "Buck Rogers In The 25th Century." Back Reads "A Century Of Progress - Chicago 1934 - I Was There." Holed as made. Shallow indent 1/8" hairline on Buck's head. Small bend in metal rim by hole but really just showing from edge on view. Nice brass coloration. Consigned in Auction #188 with $575 opening bid but here significantly lower. Only second we recall in 41 years. Rare. (I - $400 to $700)
