I got this token from Omaha,NE from a side walk tare out last week. In very good shape and was the only thing found. I cant read French so Im assuming its from the southern area.

It appears to be a brothel token from Paris-side one translated via internet "FRICTION BATH BY YOUNG LADIES" and side 2-Ruby (prostitute's name), 113 Rue St. Honore is in Paris. Have no clue on date, but I have found originals in online auctions (not your exact token) that have sold for big bucks. As yours is most likely not some sort of modern copy, you may have found a really cool item ($). Congrats!
