which I don't think is related to your piece. Yours looks like a typical trade token from (probably) a saloon owned by two individuals with those initials. It may be worth searching references for the area where you found it ca. 1895-1915.

I understood the original poster's assertion that the token was found in Barea, to mean it was found in Barea, Ohio.

Perhaps not.

Idaho, thank you for looking but S&Z Tool and Die is defunct now. The business opens in 1943 and I think this coin was stamped before then. Correct me if Im wrong on the stamping of this coin previous to 1943. I do appreciate your time!

I have seen similar design looking type scalloped edged tokens (zinc) from the 1940's era --as dinsmore , florida ....diary farm tokens .. remember althought the house / farm might be old...... the token might be a more modern 1940's era s & z tool works made "token" from the WW2 era ..dropped at a later date..
