Is it a token or a medallion. This bridge had a grand opening in 1934 but a lot of the memorabilia came from the 1940's. Do you have anyway to post a pic?

Its from the 1890's, its a token that is actually quite rare. They have sold for around $20 to $30. The price is made on supply and demand. If a collector were looking for one and you have it in good shape you may sell it for more.

An Evanston token similar to yours didn't sell on Ebay in January.
The seller wanted but did not receive an opening bid of $2.95; as shown here:

The Evanston Bus Co. stopped selling tokens as of September 8, 1963; it operated from 1924 to 1973. In at least one year (1943) the composition of the token was zinc; usually brass. Here's the article in the Chicago Tribune announcing the cessation of tokens:

Don,

Thanks for the two sites that you mentioned above.

I've bookmarked them for future reference....

Here's another great site.

You can use this site to make an inventory of your collection, Search for ID and swap with others worldwide.

I do all 3.

I've had over 65 swaps and currently have 2 parcels coming from France at this time.

Before you do swap, if you choose to do so, be sure the other swapper has a good rating.

I've only been burned once, early, and it stung enough that I now "do the homework."

My user name on that site is the same as on Treasurenet.

Best Wishes to all,
