✅ SOLVED Help With Token ID???

[asmerri]

I found this at a turn of the century home site last week. I just now was able to clean it up enough to see the lettering. I think it says "Andy Burch" on the front and "... 5 Cents" on the back. Anyone ever seen one of these before or have any ideas? Thanks for looking!

I searched google and found absolutely nothing. It looks like some kind of token. Can't wait for a member to ID that puppy...

Was this found in the Denison, Texas area? I think it reads "CONFECTIONERY". There is an Andy Burch listed in the Denison directory 1905 under Confectioneries. But 1913 he is listed as a furniture dealer and his mini-bio on Findagrave makes to no mention of the confectionery - but I do think it is the same man.

Wow! I'm impressed. I did in fact find this in Denison, TX. Amazing research friend! Thanks for the ID! And I learned what a Confectionery is today. Thanks again!

Great job, Bramblefind! Hey, asmerri -- how about posting it on TokenCatalog.com or giving permission to use your pics and I can do it.
