When I was three years old my parents went to Chicago to visit one of my dad's air force buddies. My dad brought back this personalized token from a museum there. It was certainly not his first gift to me, but nevertheless I think of it as something I have "always" had.
The other side of the token reads, "Museum Science Industry."
The misspelling of our last name is amusing, given what a careful person my dad normally is.
This is one of many curious items collected in JD's House of Miscellany.
The Dean Forest Railway held their Diesel Gala during the weekend of 15 to 17 September 2017 and I was able to make a brief visit on the first day. The lure was to see and photograph the visiting Clayton Type 1, but I also have an affinity with Class 31s, and the EWS livery of 31466 looks quite striking. The 31 has slowed to hand the token over whilst working the 14.00 Lydney Junction to Parkend and has but a few yards to reach its destination.
Woke up early to take the image, edited the image...forgot to post the image. So here it is, for the sake of posterity and workflow completion. Sunrise as it breaks through the treeline this Cold November Morning.

United States, Six Seated Liberty Dimes, 1882-1884. This brooch (a pin made of more than one love token is called a brooch) connects six dimes with jump rings to each other and a precast jeweler’s bar pin back. On each coin is a distinct hammered and engraved pattern that surrounds an engraved name. The complete field of each coin is filled with geometric, floral, curvy, and straight marks. Although the pieces are all linked together, the design on each token is one-of-a-kind.

Two of a set of tokens from the Ynysbwl Co-op society, which I acquired from a certain internet auction site, recently. I rather like the shape and textures of these two, although some of the others are quite nice, too, so may show up later...
