I was able to get out and do some detecting with all this new free time and was able to get out and do some detecting. I dug this up last week in Downtown Baton Rouge. It’s not in the print LA token catalog and I couldn’t find anything online. It’s pretty corroded but the writings all there I think.
“F. STABLER BAKERY” and “GOOD FOR 10CTS BREAD”
I’m pretty stumped so if anyone can help it would be appreciated
Thanks for looking

OUCH!! Looks like it was in a hard roll and got bitten. Seems to be in good condition otherwise.
