I just recently purchased an Ace 350, still getting used to it.
I had one some years ago in Florida, did well.
on my 3rd time out practicing where I live at I dug a 1 quart milk token.
I have no idea about it perhaps some one could help.

it's a round zink coin I believe
front design H. McConnell below this a design then ATELL's Mansfield O
back top Good For then the number 1 and under that One Quart Milk good condition to fair

thanks

Walker--what you have as Jeff says, is a trade token that is from the WWII period when zinc was commonly available and aluminum and brass was not. The tokens were used to pay the milkman for his early-morning deliveries. You purchased a quantity of tokens in advance, then when you wanted a quart of milk, you left the token (in an empty bottle from a previous delivery) on your doorstep. The milkman would then know to deliver a quart - this dairy also used pint tokens.
