milco Elite Member Joined Mar 25, 2009 Messages 5,233 Location Milwaukee Mar 29, 2020 #1 I found this last fall within a half mile of what was once the Plank Road Brewery in Milwaukee. This is the third example of this token that I have dug while MDing. Attachments 2020-03-29_204712.jpg 49.7 KB · Views: 309 2020-03-29_204821.jpg 68.4 KB · Views: 283
