I was hunting in Heath Park this evening. A little park where I have found a few Indian Heads and old silvers. I found this token and when I got home I cleaned it up. It is a little larger than a quarter and rang up as a quarter. Brass I think.
I began to think it was an old presidential token for Garfield and started to get excited. Looking at the edge it has thirteen stars, E. Pluribus Unium and of course a date. 2011.
DOH!
I've had a few coins or tokens "fool" me into thinking they were something really goodBeartoe hopefully next time it will be the "good one"

Haha. I picked up one of these at a park where there was supposed to be a bunch of silver. Same year but mine was Ulysses. As Don mentioned, it's still a buck.
Yeah, those are legal tender, so spend it wisely!
