Wow those are cool. You should have a seperate post for each. Im going to comment on the top row. They are good luck token souvenirs made by a machine that was located in arcades, carnavals and fairs. They had them when I was a kid in the 60's but probably had them at least back to the 40's. You could write whatever you wanted on them. Jeff of Pa has found a ton of them. http://www.luckymojo.com/goodluckcoins.html

In metaldetectingforum.com, their moderator "Ed in KC" dates the Palmolive token as 1953.

The right medal in the third and fourth pictures appears to be from the National Electric Light Association. It's the predecessor to the Edison Electric Institute. The medal might date from 1885 to 1930, I'm working on a better date. The center front represents Ohm's Law: Current = E (electromotive force or voltage) divided by R for resistance.

Since ya got the good luck tokens ID'ed I'll help with the Palmolive one as I have an Identical one here.....it was made in the 1920's as the Palmolive company was sold many times and it was known as Palmolive-Peet for only a few years around 1920's

I've found a similar Palmolive dealer token (Crystal coco), but it's aluminum. It's got Palmolive-Peet on it and reckon that makes dating 1920's range? Thanks the added info

In the token book I have the Palmolive tokens are listed date range 1920's and 1930's.

Interesting piece third and fourth row left with the knight. It appears to be a Tuberculosis Assn. Health Crusader brass medal pin, with the pinback broken off, a 1918-1920 movement to help promote health awareness of self and community. http://74.125.47.132/search?q=cache...rn+health+crusader"&cd=11&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=us

The Heads I Win token appears to be from the 1930's.. Cascarets was a candy flavored laxative. Read all about it. http://74.125.47.132/search?q=cache...cascarets+always+win&cd=1&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=us
