I don’t really know what it is, but when I saw it I just had to have it. Anybody see anything like this before?

    Cool, thank you very much for the great info. I just edited the title to remove 1895 since that’s just part of the zip code.

    Never saw one before - but tokens are not my area of interest. Appears to be a strike over of something else. Cheers, RickO
