Those chop marks are from orental circulation.

I was just going to say, that is pretty unusual. Nice to be able to trace where a coin has been. I was going to guess those chop marks indicated circulation in India, Tibet, China, or somewhere like that... or maybe all of them?

Great photos. I like the token and the brooch too.

I don't know if the Round House has something to do with the railroad, or what. The center of the token has the picture of large building. At least that what it looks like to me.

Hey Boyce, the Round House thingy is a railroad bib over-alls button. I have found them in Calvert too.

Thanks guys. That was the first I've ever heard of the railroad Round House. That was very interesting. That shop had another coin I was interested in, but I thought he was asking to much for it. It was a 3 cent piece. Had a star, and sheild on it. He wanted fourty dollars for it, and not in that good a shape. I found them on the computer for half the price in better shape. I will be checking that shop out a little more often tough.
