    Milking The Silver! Silver Quarter and a really cool Milk Token!

    Got out yesterday with the intentions of finding some Civil War relics, however the location had different plans! We DID find some cool stuff including a Silver Quarter and a really cool Sunrise Dairy Co. Milk Token!

    Thanks Tony! This is actually my first token in a while! This one was apparently manufactured in Gastonia, NC... If only it could tell the story of how it made it's way to Tennessee..
