Another trade token

[beerguy]

I dropped my wife off for her yoga class and went to my usual place.

I found this cool trade token, hoping that I can find its' origin.

Idaho Tokens, what do you think?

This was found in Stanwood WA.



Thanks and HH!!

Here's an interesting token I found on tokencatalog. I'm guessing Spanish-American War era. It makes me wonder if yours might also be military-related:
Fort Walla Walla, Washington (Walla Walla County), U.S.A. [CA2]

I don't know where my message went that was before the above one, but I said I'd do some looking.

Cunningham's Military Tokens of the US lists two more similar ones (but without photos):

TRADE / E / CHECK // 5 / CENTS / IN TRADE (Company E, 7th Infantry)
TRADE / F / CHECK // 5 / CENTS / IN TRADE (Company F)

Those look the same as mine in the detail.

I should wash the dirt off in case we want to add this to the database.

Thanks for looking into it, Idaho!

Congrats on the old token

I forgot to mention that the E and F ones listed in Cunningham's Military Tokens book are under Fort Townsend, WA.
