Nice dime looks like it got hot. Hey all you guys I have a question to ask and dont know where to ask it so here it is. I have a friend at work that has a friend that was diggin up an old silo after it fell down and he found what was left of an old metal box and in this box it had numerous tokens of some sort. They are marked in $1, $5, $10 and so on to $1000 or so he says. On one side on the top it says "Astoria" in the middle of the coin it says "Salt Lake City" and on the bottom it says "Where the Men Meet" so what do you Think? I think it is from an old brothel/saloon, he also mentioned they seem to be made of brass. Any takers?
