I got this out of a junk box for fifty cents. I've never seen an Elks token before. Does anyone know approximately when this might have been produced?

    I'd guess around the 1930's or 40's. Nice token find!

    Wow, I had no idea it was that early. This is only the second token I've picked up and this one was just a spur of the moment purchase. The other is a Canadian Halfpenny token dated 1820 with a "T.F.Haywood" counterstamp. Thanks guys!

    Whenever I see a Benevolent Order token, I always think of the "complete & total barf-o-rama" scene from Stand By Me.
