    The token is on a Jasonville , Indiana Merchant with what I think was a different metal in the center that might have had the value. When I found it it looked like a rock,was I surprised. I figured the other whats it was a curtain weight or for a dress.Thanks all. This next week got started today with a1888 indian and 2 wheats.Hoping for more silver. Happy Hunting Yazoo
