I'm right in the middle of buying a retirement home but now I'm chickening out because
of all that's happening lately. I need a break from all this. Lets see what everyone has.

Whitehead-Hoag Beer token good luck
By Whitehead & Hoag. Anti Prohibition Era Good Luck Coin. "Vote Dry I Lose" with a smoking gun toting Undertaker, a pair of feet by him on the ground and two ominous Skull and Crossbones. "Vote Wet I Win" with a five cent mug of sudsy beer, a lucky horse shoe and the slogan, "Better Times." "Issued By The Crusaders."

By Osborne Register Co.
In 1920, the brewery was shut down by national Prohibition. They soon re-opened after receiving a permit to produce non-alcoholic beverages ("Primalt") there, but closed again in 1925. Prima merged with Bismarck Brewing after prohibition was repealed in 1933 and began production again for another five years until the repeal sales boom ended. It lasted several more years being operated by other brewery operations.

Wow! Great tokens!

Those are in super condition, especially the first one.

I also like how it's easy to attribute these to the minters, Whitehead & Hoag and Osborne Register here.

Thanks @zoins I did forget to indicate Osborne Register on the second one. I’ll change
it to reflect the minter.

This is from Wolfe's Tavern in Wolfeboro NH.After you drank one of each beer listed you got a mug. They were hung from the ceiling, but in the late 90's they were being taken. I took mine home. It's dated 5/27/93

in December 2003 the FDA added Ephedra to its list of banned substances.

I work for a wine and liquor distributor. Last year, Riunite Wine put this challenge coin on some of their bottles that they were shipping out.

What if The only way to stop the Coronavirus is to tell Hillary that it's going to testify against her?

that's probably right up there with thinking one day it'll be gone like a Miracle and thinking you're the only one who can solve the problem.

we should probably stick to the ephedra.

Good for 1/2 liter beer

Very nice!
I remember being in Buffalo when you first showed it.
I snapped this pic back then but I don't think I put it in that thread.
