I’ve been soaking this token in peroxide and salt for two days. I think I can make out a man with a beard on the obverse and some writing running along the outside of the reverse. Any one seen this before? IMG_0012.JPG IMG_0012.JPG

Looked again and the immage does look like a black man with a beard. Maybe a Booker T Washington medallion?

Looks like the dates 1832-1833 above the head on the front.

Thank you everyone that got my mind moving a solved the unknown token. This officially makes my 2nd Presidential token found. The first one was a FDR Presidential 3rd term token which of course made me buy, being from New Orleans and my hero, a Andrew Jackson Token for over $230. I didn’t even know they had Presidential tokens. The hobby is sick and exciting.

I found a similar Abe Lincoln one this month. I thought it was just a Shell Oil token at the time, but, it's different. I Only found one other online that matches exactly, but, sadly there wasn't any info posted with it.
