Bill Fugera, New Finds Editor

 

Since the Fall '07 meeting in Cumberland Gap I have logged dozens of  tokens. Many of these popped up on eBay. Others were submitted by club members.

 

It is important for all club members to reveal all new finds so that they can be logged for future information and reference books.  Just by looking at the current reference books it is revealed that those missing tokens must have been produced at one time. Slowly many of these tokens are showing up especially on eBay.

 

You can send me new finds information by either an aluminum foil tracing or an internet picture of both sides of the token.

 


Send them to: FUGEWILJ@COX.NET
