On one side the token reads:

SAVE MONEY
3 CAKES
CAMAY
TOILET SOAP
FOR .15 (actually has the cents sign)
USUALLY SOLD 3 FOR 25

The other side is marked:

TO DEALERS
THIS COUPON CHECK, WHEN TERMS OF THE ARRANGEMENT HAVE BEEN FULFILLED, WILL BE REDEEMED AT THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN .15 AND YOUR REGULAR RETAIL PRICE FOR 3 CAKES CAMAY
PROCTER & GAMBLE

Metal Coupons were issued by Procter & Gamble and other companies in the late 1920's. They were discontinued because they were more expensive to produce than paper coupons and harder to redeem.

Way to go Brian! I think DiggerBug found one of those last year, but I've not come across one yet. Congrats!!

Congrats, Brian! I've still yet to find my 1st token. Nana seems to have all the luck with tokens, the only two I have came from her diggins.
