Not quite sure of the age, probably 1930's or 40's. This is the first one I've dug up. I found it at an old fairground that dates back to the 1870's. It's about the size of a dime which is quite a bit smaller than the Oklahoma tax tokens.

Nice token Okie. It's got to be pretty old, as Kansas suspended use of them in 1939. Cool find!

Didn't know that, thanks!
 
It was used as money to make up fractions of a cent caused by sales tax.
 
Very cool - I think I would wear it!
