    I suspect the Conder token was made into some type of gear replacement for some type of machinery......

    What a cool group. Some of them were even punched by old style 4-sided nails! Isn't one a dough-cutter (the one with a toothed edge)?

    I already have seven of those. image

    I like the piece with the toothed edge, actually.

    I can't tell if that dent is a second hole or not. Does it have two holes in the middle, or just one? 'Cause if there's a second hole, chances are, it was made into a child's "buzzer" toy. Apparently you'd put the piece on a circle of string, and wind it up and it would make a buzzing sound, due to the teeth. Or so I've heard.

    That's a cool assortment.
