First Year V-Nick, IHP, Trade Token, and bell = good day out

[Fourman110]

1883 V-nickel today!! First year issue and of the "CENT" variety. Let's see 1883....
-1st year of using electric lights via overhead lines (Thomas Edison)
-1st vaudville theater opens
-Booklin Bridge opens (13 years in coming)
-Black Bart commits a stage coach robery, leaving evidence that leads to his capture.


Also a 1900 IHP, a tag that says Dr..... Cures Coughs (turns out to be a Dr. Bell's Pine Tar Honey medicine ad), and what I'm assuming is a trade simulator token (Good for 1 in Trade). Oddly I can't find any other image of the token. It says the same thing on both sides and has a funky olooking "1".

I love this hobby.
