At Long Last - My First Trade Token

[washingtonian]

Hey folks!

Not a lot of silver for me to start the new year but I’ve been getting out and having fun.

Tried a new area today and was rewarded with my first trade token. Good for 5c at Gateway Cafe in Edmonds, WN (sic). Can’t find any history on the cafe although my estimate is this token dates to the 20s or 30s.



This is one of my 30 bucket list items I wanted to find this year (although I’m only aiming to find 9) so that’s nice too!

Good luck out there and happy hunting.

Your first token! Congrats! I'm still tokenless.

Nice save! Tokens are my favorite non silver finds. I only ever found one trade token and it was $1 version.

That’s awesome! I hope to find a token with a denomination that big someday.
