Went to my grandparents house today and yesterday. It was nice out so I got out in their front lawn for a bit. I knew their house was older and that I would find some older coins, but I did not expect to find 2 tokens. We were trying to figure out how a token from Philly wound up in the middle of Illinois, turns out my Grandma was stationed there when she was in the Navy back in the day. But we weren't sure if this belonged to her or not, she didn't remember losing it or having one. The other token we couldn't find anything about... I will post it in the Help Identifying section later, along with a pic of a weird bottle cap. Thanks for looking!

Weird Col. Sanders bottle cap. The bottle is broken but seems small and rectangular in shape.
