I’ve been hunting a field across from my house and finding items from a 1916 barber dine to a 1970’s religious token
Today in a 30 minutes hunt I pulled this token with Chevrolet emblems and the word Success on one side and waste not want not on the other. A fairly through Google search came up with nothing. Before I get to deep in the weeds I thought I would see if anyone recognises it. Just a little larger than a nickel and aluminum.
Thanks

I would guess it was something given to sales staff rather than the general public?

It has to be old with that old saying and the reaper. That is my guess. It is so nice to dig up local history like that.
 
Based on the style of the Chevrolet logo I guess the age at the 1930's... sans serif CHEVROLET type treatment, with those ruled lines above and below the "VRO" (1934). Very cool find!

That’s a great observation, I would not have thought of font and etc.
Thanks
