Possum and I had a good day hanging out and did manage to find 2 Buffalos, 6 wheats and a mystery token. The token appears to have the initials โ€œJ Rโ€ stamped on one side and I see a black letter 2 on the other. Any guess on what kind of token it might be is appreciated. Thank guys IMG_0012.JPG IMG_0012.JPG IMG_0012.JPG

Truth--there are indeed some "J. R." maverick tokens attributed to Mandeville, LA, but they are not like yours, so without some more and better information I wouldn't say yours is related to them. Might be, but...

Hereโ€™s the one from EBay B1256AF7-72EB-43B4-B3AF-74921A630263.png 4B5BCF59-168A-4CBF-92E0-BD6CBECB69BB.jpg

My J.R. Is smaller and off center, but the 2 1/2 is on the money.
