Crawford & Farber's LA Trade Tokens book lists 5, 10, & 25. It also states that "Various references indicate Francis Childers Blacksher was a merchant and cotton planter from 1876 to 1918. Reportedly he operated several general stores; however, directories list him only under Pleasant Hill in 1886 and under Allen, which was about ten miles north of Robeline, from 1902 to 1914."

Thanks
