Temperance token

[MIKE54]

Found this at 8 inches at 1848 house, research shows it was made from 1830-1860.View attachment 61864 It's gilted brass and I thought it was a nice old coin. Still pretty cool.

Incredible token! I am finding sources that date it to 1841. Yours still has wonderful gilding left on it. How does the other side look?

Here are some pictures I found on the internet:
