L.D's. SONS & CO. 27mm Token Possible Lopez, Dunbar's & Sons Seafood Industry Token
Recently I dug a D.I.O.P.Co. Token. Deer Island Oyster Packing Co. C.1900-20.

This find rekindled my interest in finding out more about a token I dug a couple years ago.
The one below says L.D's. SONS & CO. I believe this might be an early Lopez, Dunbar's Sons & Co. Token.
The pictured token is not in my copy of Chathams Brozenes and Doodlum book, and I have never seen a picture of it anywhere.
The only example in the book is L. & D. CO. INC that has no picture. If you look in the description you will see mention of a Lopez, Dunbar's Sons & Co.
The token was found in Biloxi, MS. Biloxi was once the Seafood Capital of the world.

One set of pics is with LED flash, and the other is w/out flash.
Anyone ever see this token, or know anyone who might have?
Thanks.
