Masonic Token find!

My brother sent me a find from his farm in Athens, Ohio. It's an octagonal copper token with R * A * M Chapter No 39, Athens, Ohio on it. I relayed what I found to my brother and he found an Athens Ohio page that they were originally chartered January 5, 1815.
The token hasn't been cleaned and it's so dark and green it's not worth photographing. I was, however, able to find a token on eBay with the exact same reverse, which is this one:
I HAVE to get a detector. I had more fun researching a 1920s old tin spoon than I did just plain out finding wheat pennies. *whimpers!* And they just tore up the schoolyard next to me for construction!
