Silver ring & Saloon Token !!

[Squirrel322]

Still pounding the pounded park and still squeaking out finds. Last night I found a silver ring and a saloon token!! It’s the first saloon token I’ve dug. I was hoping it was from a one-time local establishment but it’s attributed to Washington state circa 1904.





A couple other recent finds -





Thanks for looking!

Some history:[FONT=&quot]C.C. Cushen, born and raised in Maryland, came to Everett, Washington, around the turn of the century. During the short time he lived there[/FONT][FONT=&quot] he operated three saloons, the Rialto in 1901-03, [/FONT][FONT=&quot]the Grand in 1904[/FONT][FONT=&quot], and the Lumberman in 1905[/FONT][FONT=&quot]. He also built a home at 2610 Oaks Ave. About 1905 he relocated his family to Coupeville, Washington, where he operated a hotel. One of his sons became a well-known auto dealer in Coupeville. Cushen is buried with his wife and family in Sunnyside Cemetery overlooking Ebey’s Prairie on Whidbey Island.

Want to see something crazy? Here’s a token I found in Washington last winter.




Same guy, same establishment, different era of tokens. What are the odds? I don’t believe his operation was that gigantic.

Well done on some excellent finds!
