Quick hunt- Small Token

[Lookn4Seated]

went out for an hour before i had to surrender myself to the misses. found two wheaties and this token. I have no clue what its made of, but it rang up as a silver dime. It seems a bit on the light side though. may be aluminum? No clue. Anyways, it is a first. Anyone know of a good catalog/book for tokens? Thanks and HH!

Another nice find!!

Here's some info on the tokens:

You can buy one here for a quarter:

But I think it would be worth much more than that to me if I had found it. Definitely a keeper!

I figured Positive Thinking = Positive Results.

IDK, I'm up to try anything if it works.
That or a large cent is one of my goals for this year. Just found my first 1800's silver, so now I have to up the ante.
