this could be fun !

Perhaps you might have an item that you would like to share with us all under this category also ? ?  i.e. photograph's of various hdpth street signs or other hdpth points of interest ? ?

 

Dose anyone know what  this trading token was used for ?

Perhaps it was used at an Arcade, Carnival, Casino, Commissary, General Store or something else ? ? 

Note: this token here is the exact same type of coin 
as the Hudspeth Bros. in Rosa, Louisiana ...

 

FAY HUDSPETH EL RENO, O. T.  / GOOD FOR  54 IN TRADE


The 5 cent piece pictured here was seen recently on    ... 

Hopefully someone will contact us with a lead or the actual story behind this token :)

From a link at OKGENWEB we discovered that El Reno, O. T. is within present day Canadian County, Oklahoma ... oh also Oklahoma didn't become a state until Nov. 1907 ... so this one is much older than the other token's that we have displayed here :)

Here is the answer to this trivia item ... 

 

Coming soon ! hopefully :)

Hints ~

Fort Reno was established as an Indian Territory military fort in 1875 and is located four miles west of El Reno on Route 66 in Canadian County, Oklahoma 

Could these folk's be a hint ?
