I've always liked the patriotics, but there is such variety in the merchant tokens, very nice.
 

I found one of these and posted back in 10/2020. I'm not too far from NYC, interesting yours made it so far away. The area I found mine was once a farm settled by an Irish immigrant back around 1860. I find Indian Head Pennies and tokens from this era. Did a search on this site and only our postings came up.
