When looking through tokens, I always think it's interesting to see tokens with similar names of famous numismatists.
Here's one for the Guth Chocolate Company of Baltimore, Maryland I just ran across. There appear to be at least 2 types for this.

And Pogue's International Liquor Store in Anchorage, Alaska:

@Zoins.... That is a very attractive token..... Cheers, RickO
How about an "exact" name of a collector and Numismatist on a token, this one " J.N.T. Levick!"
Among other collecting interests I have collected tokens and counterstamps with my last name (Perkins) on them for over 25 years now. I've had a lot of fun with this collecting interest.

Here's one for UBS, commonly known as the Union Bank of Switzerland, but perhaps not for this token!
