In the past I have dug up 4 of those Excelsior tokens ,and one reverse is totally different .Instead of those good luck symbols it has the companies crest.All were stamped with 1910 on obverse.

My brother got a really crusty one of those tokens from the 1880s earlier this year. Gotta love finding unique stuff!

I was replacing a front door sill plate on an older house ('30's) and found one of those in mint condition under it, apparently put there as a good luck thing by the builder.
