A little help please...token

[aztrezhunter]

I am looking for any info on this bar token I found 15 years ago in Illinois, with a Garrett Freedom Ace, 8" deep near an old home site. It is 1 1/4" x 1/16" and made of brass I think. Thank You for any info...

According to Google Maps, the address on your token is now under a bridge on an Interstate highway. There was a Log Cabin Bar (recently closed) located in Turlock, CA, which is fairly close to Modesto.

Neat find

Well Thank You, I didn't think to google map it. I was hoping some token guys would know the value of it to... that would be a great spot to check for any CA guys.

Did you check Richards? http://tokencatalog.com/display_rec...ingAnyWord=&HomePageSearch=&view=All+Listings

This brass one is not listed in Kappen's CA token catalogs - just the plastic one as shown on TokenCatalog.com The reverse design is typical of the product of the Meyer & Wenthe company of Chicago and was popular in the decades after WWII. The 1960 Modesto, CA City Directory lists Log Cabin Tavern - Orrin Lemmons & Clarence B. Cochran - 3840 Atchison. Wrong address, and that is the latest year I have access to. Earlier ones I spot-checked don't show anything at that address or by that name. It would be great if you would post your pics to tokencatalog, or, with permission, I can do it.

Nice,, I can't find it listed in any of my books either, just a plastic one as idahotokens said.

1200 n 9th street modesto ca.
seems the 99 highway was built between 1965 and 1972
if you click the 72 topo you see the 99hwy 65 topo dosent show it
guessing it is one of those buildings above the T/driveway marker
you may have to zoom out at the netr link
