Hi, I dug up in a corn field yesterday where there used to be a horse track where last week I dug a 1875 seated dime.
Pickings are real slim there but I managed a aluminum George Washington Lucky Play Money. I've never seen a GW play money but I'm guessing that it's from the 1920's or 30's?

I can't seem to find anything online about it.

Thanks for looking!

That looks like the George Washington Medal that I found a couple of days ago... I will post a pic for you to see. There is a date on the back from 1910 and I was thinking that there had to have been many styles of the same medal / coin for that era.
