I can see you are still hitting it hard Tommy. Congrats on all those finds. That token is sweet, rather dig them than clad. Keep it up I feel you are due for a big silver any day now,

Love the token. He must have had a small business in Ann Arbor Tommy. I think you have enough information to research it. Go to your local library and see if they have an Ann Arbor section. This one would be worth investigating this winter.

Nice bunch of finds.

Nice finds Tommy! Looks like some neat things beyond the silver and token and Mackaydon and Scuba have some leads. Let us know what you find on that.

I suspect Dan is a nickname. Dyonesus Raftopulos is listed from 1921-25 as a restaurant at 103 E. Ann. In 1927 his restaurant is at 119 E. Ann and in 1931 he's listed as a billiard hall at 119 E. Ann.
