Island Side Plantation was owned by the Jones family from 1908 to 1940. It became one of the former plantations which were part of a 1940 government project in which 10,000 acres were purchased by the government, and divided into parcels for resale. Former tenant farmers could apply for low interest loans to buy small tracts of the land.
Tokens were issued in 5 and 10 cent denominations. (I am still looking for a 10)
 

World's Columbian Exposition Award Medal Saint-Gaudens/Barber with original aluminum case. As I understand it, the case is rare and the insert card is even rarer. Most of the cases were lost, destroyed, or simply tossed out. The insert card from Scovill was almost always thrown away or dried up and fell to pieces. At least this is what was related to me by a couple of serious medal collectors. I'm pretty new to medals (less than a couple of months) and this is only my third acquisition.
 

Someone get the fork, and take me off the grill. I am done.

Maybe this is a good excuse to go buy something.

I would never have guessed 64. From those pictures, it looks like it should have graded higher.

I know. How do you interpret this?

Here is (a hasty) 22 S "slashed 2" image...

She is a looker. 

Houghton is still in business, and still manufacturing detergents, lubricants, and fluids, including Cosmolubric. (The latest is Cosmolubric B-230). Their very first product, Cosmoline, is still being used as a rust preventative today.

South Haven, MI - Van Ostrand's Pharmacy, Brass, 21mm, 4.70g Circa 1912

Established around 1873 Van Ostrand's was one of the premier drug stores in Southwest Michigan, stocking all manner of goods including "drugs and medicines, paints and oils, toilet and fancy goods,and an elaborate onyx soda fountain". Probably a likely place in 1890 to pick up that off the shelf potassium cyanide you would need to clean your coins with (seriously, do NOT attempt) ☠. 

That isn't the copper core showing at 9:00 to 12:00 in the obverse picture?

Found this at a flea market about 10 years ago:
 
 

I don't think that identifying the year will add anything to the value. That one is only worth a cent,  if you can get someone to accept it.
It is copper, though, so as Karen Holcomb suggested in another thread, it might be worth saving in case you need to melt it down to make ammo for the Zombie Apocalypse.

Very cool dime bank! 
And, is that your "Dime Kitty?" I have one from a bank on the MS gulf coast in my exonumia collection.

To quote from the other forum:
"This is an uncentered broadstrike in which there was slight contact with the collar as the coin expanded. It's not enough to be considered a partial collar error, as grazing contact with the collar is quite common in broadstrikes. The obverse shows collar clash." (Cited from: https://www.cointalk.com/threads/error-folks.360149/#post-4513913)
I am not familiar with Mike Diamond, but he has been recognized by Coneca for many years for his research articles, so he obviously knows more than I do about such things. I thought the definition of a broadstrike was that the coin was struck completely out of the collar, and that any contact with the collar on the edge of the coin made it a partial. I stand corrected. I learned something new again today .

History by Gil Hoffman: (Mississippi Rails website)
The Leaf Lumber & Veneer Works was incorporated at Leaf, Greene County on April 14, 1924, by B. E. Green, of McLain; J. C. Daughdrill, of Leaf, and H. M. Hempstead, of Mobile, AL, with authorized capital stock of $100,000. In early 1924 the company purchased the plant of the Overstreet Veneer Company, at Beaumont, Perry County, and moved it to Avent, adding a bandsaw, edger and trimmer. The Avent mill, with a cutting capacity of 25,000 feet per day, cut hardwood and cypress. 

In April 1929 the company bought the plant and timber holdings of the Southern Saw Mill Company, at Greenville, Florida, and moved its operations from Avent, MS, to Greenville, FL, with operations commencing there in July 1929.
