South Carolina Dairy Token- ID

jnkhntr · Aug 14, 2011

This token reads Edisto Dairy, Orangeburg S.C.
Reverse reads Good for 1Qt. Golden Guernsey Milk

Was wondering rarity and Guide value?

Chibbaro's SC Tokens book shows this as "1930s & 1940s" rarity 9, 3-4 known. Reiter's Dairy Tokens book quotes this information. Neither gives a dollar value. Keep in mind that a token catalog can only guess at rarity unless everyone having tokens lets the author know what they have. That doesn't happen. It would be appreciated by the community of people interested in tokens if you would post a picture of this one on www.tokencatalog.com

Bob Dukes began a farming and dairy business after serving in the Army in World War II. He founded Edisto Dairy in 1946 to process and sell retail dairy products. Between 1961 and 1972 he held the office of Sheriff of Orangeburg County.
