Back to old friends yard, another interesting token

[treblehunter]

Found some clad, old lipstick tube(all metal) and another token- one side has pic of guy with bull on his back and writing on bottom of token says-bull throwing award. Other side says-across the top- awarded to(then an area where maybe someones name could have been ascribed in??) In recognition of your natural ability-- across the rest of the bottom.

Tokens are cool finds [ so many diff, kinds & styles ] maybe there not worth much neither is a common Mercury Dime tho more now than they wee a month ago but they are very nice and all tell a different story. I like to find them , Congratz...As for GOLD -GOLD is GOLDEN.

Your the man Don, ha, it is amazing what some of the folks on this site can find. Thanks for the research Don. I wish it was a 1910 10 dollar Indian. Still the best, still might come. I have not been able to share the two tokens with the family. Sad thing is that the Father and one of the sons have since past and maybe these were one of there possessions, it hopefully will be nice to give back to the Mother and brother that are still alive.

Thanks.
At the base of the reverse is the manufacturer's name--in Chicago.
I can't make it out, but if it can be read, that might help date the token.
