Sometimes something happens that is totally random that reminds you of a different time and place. Somehow I found an old “Bullseye” subway token used from 1986-1995 in the washing machine after I did a load of laundry. I always used to have an emergency one somewhere on my person just in case.
This is a 25 second exposure. (Processed version)
Reverse: Crowned leopard's head with the motto of the Farrier's Company: “VI ET VIRTUTE” on banner below and legend: “FOR THE HONOR AND USE OF TRADE”. Plain edge. Rare. Less than 75 known.
After all the jewelry the Purple Mage was obliged to wear as status markers, this little token of devotion is that much more precious to Nightowl.

This is the token key machine. The signalman pulls the key up into the top position, presses the knob in several times, which sends a signal to the train driver, who in return sends a signal back which allows the signalman to release the key which is then taken out and handed to the train driver. The train can’t leave without being given the key, which the train driver then has to hand to the signalman and the end of the line. The process is then repeated for the return journey.

Token is over twice the size of Devi now. I wouldn't be surprised if I came home one day to find Token passed out from eating Devi.
My urbanite sister handed me one of these tokens each time we were about to board the bus. I began to take for granted that she had a neverending supply of them.
Philadelphia bus routes run until after midnight. The longer I laid in bed listening to them pass on the street, the louder they got. One of the reasons my sister warned me to pack earplugs – which of course I forgot.
Gainsborough's token nod to it's part in the Seperative movement is this residential street, right on the Southern edge of Town - Mayflower Close. Named, one assumes, after the famous Pilgrim Father's vessel of the same name, which carried the dissenters to a new World.
One of these dissenters was John Robinson, born in Sturton-le-Steeple, studied at Cambridge where he became a fellow and then dean of Corpus Christi College.
Later, in Norwich, he was dismissed from his position as an Anglican minister. Returning to Scrooby he became Richard Clyfton's assistant and a friend of John Smyth.
Robinson led the Pilgrim congregation in Leiden and continued to inspire them in their emigration to Plymouth in New England.
Robinson's independent Pilgrim congregation is seen by many as the origin of Congregationalism and, as such, a direct ancestor of the United Reformed Churches in England and the United Church of Christ in the United States, and is commemorated in the Town's United Reform Church on Church Street.
This is a Kansas State Tax token. Kansas issued these to pay for payment of sales tax. A token was valued at on mill, or one tenth of one of 1 cent (ten for a penny). I do not remember when they were discontinued but sometime in the early 40's when aluminum was necessary for the war.
Evidently Dad or my uncle used a token to repair the Tractor.
You can see an example of recycling in the 40's here. www.flickr.com/photos/tejedoro_de_luz/3177911796/
