I got back to the woods I hunted yesterday and found these two tokens about a foot apart and a couple inches down.

E.F.Stolp-Oronoco,Minn.Good For 5 Cents, Cigars & Candy.

Queen Ice Cream Co.Oronoco,Minn.Good For 5 cents in trade.

I have changed the title of this post because I have found out that some tokens are rare and worth a few hundred dollars apiece. I sold these two tokens and will never know how much they were really worth or how rare.
These were not listed in the token data base so I listed them. I did some more cleaning on the aluminum token a little lime away and it had a few pits from corrosion. Oronoco is a small town north of Rochester, Minn.

Just imagine a 5 cent token is worth 4,000 nickels. I was going to get 4,000 nickels and take a picture. ;D

Don't let your tokens go to cheep.

Cool Tokens... I think I would pay more attention to the thorns next time. ;D
 
No one thinks much about tokens until you are offered cash. I think it was a fare price.
 
Two very nice ones, congrats. I would love to find one, but they seem to be much more common in the midwest, not many found in the east.
 
Tokens generally follow the laws of supply and demand like most other items. I will supply you with all the tokens you want at $200 each.

I really like that Queen Ice Cream Token. At $200 a piece I think you did good.
