Found in Kalamazoo, can't identify-help needed

This token was ten inches down along the shores of Woods lake. It is an old beach/amusment park from as early as 1880s. Any information would be helpful. I've gone through all my resources and have found notta. Its about the size of a silver dollar and is most likely copper or bronze. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks all and HH

The Parker Home Furnishing Co. was located in Muskegon, Mich. and is listed in the 1919-23 Michigan gazetteers.

Does your token have a Greenduck maker's signature below the CO. on the obverse. I can't be sure from the picture.

Not the word "Greenduck" but it appears that there is a "G.D." below the "H" in the word Furnishing right along the rim. Token is still soaking in olive oil and I took it out and is more distinguishable with a lupe rather than in this photo. Is G.D. the makers mark of Greenduck?
thanks for your quick reply of info. Another guy alerted me that it was from 1918, Muskegon (Richards token database)

Lets try this photo again...

The only other example I've examined had the signature 'The Greenduck Co. Chicago' under CO. I'm guessing that what you're reading as GD is actually the GO of Chicago.
