Dug this today in Denver. Just a tad larger than a nickel, copper, and uni-faced. Doesn't seem to be listed in Stuart's CO token book. Thought at first it meant "Colorado Housing Authority", but have my doubts. Any help would be appreciated.

The back has one of those astrological sexual position picture jobbers on it.

No kidding?????

He said it's "unifaced".
 
Yeah, the back is plain. (One of those boring Puritanical sexual scenes, where nothing is going on) The other token is more interesting. It's a "Clarke's Pure Rye" token, which is good for a Clarke's Pure Rye Highball" 1890-1910-ish. The one's I found online show the other version, with a different backing. Found at a burn/trash dump, it's in pretty bad shape. Posting just the reverse, the front is identical to the one being advertised, just in much poorer condition.
More will follow, this site is interesting.

It's okay, I've been known to smell colors.
Same spot, I dug earlier today a "Usher Token", from Venice California, 1936. It's a psychic, good luck toke, for "Aries". Third weird toke in two days.
Love them tokens.
Just need to find an Aries to rub it on.
For good luck, of course.
