My 1970 copy of Atwood's Catalog of Transportation Tokens ( I gotta get the new edition!) lists it as $3.50. I'll bet it would go for many multiples of that today. The company was in operation from 1889-1892. Horsecar type transportation tokens are always popular with the vecturists (collectors and students of transportation tokens).

I found one a few years ago. The front was exactly like yours, except it was from LaCrosse, WI.
I sold it for about $60.
Nice find!

Now that is a fine token there, I'd be happy as all get out to find that. A real piece of history, congrats.
