Hunters Cream Flour?

[just-dig]

I found these this afternoon in the tropical humidity we're experiencing. The big copper piece says Hunters Cream Flour, and the other one arcadian ginger ale. I have no idea about these two things. Any idea what age the copper is? The wheats are 28 and 28d.

Quick check found this reference to the flour to help date it. Scroll down towards the bottom of the page-http://74.125.47.132/search?q=cache...unters+"cream+flour"&cd=5&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=us. I'm still looking for more info.

Any markings on the back of the Cream Flour? Seems too large for a token, maybe a medallion?

I've been searching for a while and i'm wondering if this could be the "Hunter flour" that your piece is attributed to? Hunter Milling Company-

I think the Arcadian is a giveaway for this bottler-http://74.125.47.132/search?q=cache...arcadian+ginger+ale"&cd=1&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=us Scroll downabout 2/3rds of the way down the page.
