Have found a few of these over the years including one yesterday. Also called crop pickers tokens The initials are for the farm and the number denotes whatever quantity of work that was just completed. Usually for picking, peeling or packing fruits and vegetables(especially tomatoes). These were redeemable for cash, goods at the farm store, or other nearby stores, or even for lodging on the farm. They were in use from after the Civil War and well into the 1900s. Dont see these posted often and was wondering if any other parts of the country have similar farming tokens or if they are unique to the Mid Atlantic area which my research seems to indicate.
