Popular Post Just Bob Posted June 12 Author Popular Post Share Posted June 12 Robert Wood Hinton was born Dec.28, 1854, in Winder, Georgia. In 1886 he moved to Lamar County in Mississippi to join his brother Henry and Herbert Camp in forming the Camp & Hinton Bros. Lumber Company. In 1899, Robert started the R.W. Hinton Company for the purpose of supplying general merchandise to the employees of the mill and the public. The Company also manufactured naval stores ( turpentine products) and lumber. He chose the town of Lumberton, as it was the site of the junction of the Gulf & Ship Island Railroad, and the New Orleans & Northeastern railroad. Mr Hinton died April, 17, 1932. The store issued tokens in denominations of 5, 10, 25, and 50 cents, and one dollar. All are listed as scarce to rare.

Doesn't it feel good to finally be able to land one you've been looking for for a while? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soooo good, and to see it placed with all the other tokens from the same town is a beautiful thing. This one turned out to be a lot more difficult to find than I had anticipated, I am very happy to have finally added this example to my collection. 2024 has gotten off to a slow start for tokens, at least for me, I made a few random purchases of ones I liked or seemed interesting but this one is definitely my best token pick up of the year so far.
