OLD or not so Old?

otnb · May 27, 2020

Found this , it gave me a quarter signal on my ATPro, when I got it out of the ground I saw it was not a quarter and not a common token. Now i'd like to know what it is and maybe how old it is. any help would be appreciated.

Thank you.

So I think it's a tag from a brewing company. It's possible the tag went on a bag of hops maybe? I found a bottle online with the similar markings. Hope this helps point you in the right direction!

That’s a cool find.

Certainly looks pretty old. I would throw a guess of 1910s at you...give or take.
Very cool token dig!

There is a "Chicago Brewing Co." listed on this website saying it existed as of July 1890:
