Just getting in, no time for witty dialogue, just the facts ma'am. Hit two sites, at one got a 1905 Indian, and a bunch of early Wheats. Second site, which could be real promising, I dug an unlisted Tivoli Brewery token, good for 5cts. Quick copy/paste info....

The Tivoli Brewery (Located at 223 Larimer Street in Denver, CO) was in operation from 1859 to 1969 under various trade names:

* Colorado Brewing Co. Denver, CO 1859 - 1879
* Max Melsheimer, aka Max Melsheimer & Co. Denver, CO 1879 - 1888
* Miwaukee Brewery Co., Max Melsheimer Denver, CO 1888 - 1895
* Miwaukee Brewery Co., Max Melsheiver & John Mack Denver, CO 1895 - 1900
* John Good, Tivoli Brewery Denver, CO 1900 - 1901
* Tivoli-Union Brewing Co. Denver, CO 1901 - 1915
* The Western Products Co. Denver, CO 1932 - 1933
* The Tivoli Union Co. Denver, CO 1933 - 1953
* The Tivoli Brewing Co., aka Mountain Brewing Co. Denver, CO 1953 - 1969

So, it's from 1900-1915. Only my second Denver Brewery token, (the other is a Zang), and it's been a real long time since I've dug any decent token at all.

Nice finds!!! :icon_thumleft:
 
Do you still think my unlisted "Maennerchor" is a coat check?


What I said and did in College doesn't count. I was so very young.

From the style of that token I would say it dates from right at the turn of the century, 1900-1901 :thumbsup:

I am jealous.
 
Cool finds.
:hello: HH in 2010 :hello:

Thanks all. Did a double check, my other Brew token is a Neef Brother's, not a Zang.
