Stamped token with an early vehicle and driver on the right side....

[WhiteCountyPaleo]

Went to a house site today and was amazed to uncover a token of some sort. It was at the south west cornerstone underneath a intact hand made brick. This must have been a hidden item for some reason. The interesting part of the piece is that the driver is on the right hand side. The passenger is waving something. Any information would be great!!!

Thanks,

Could it be the front off of a picture button?

People often put things under cornerstones when building , sometimes coins.

Show us the back side.

It is really thin. So the exact same as the front just backwards. The piece is stamped from the image side.

I found this in "The Complete Button Book" (Albert / Kent)

Awesome! Does it tell a date? So, it is the front of a button?
