I found this token with 5 others as well as 11 Union and Confederate buttons Friday. They were all about 6 inches deep and enclosed in a plastic tub inside a cardboard box on my front porch! They were a Christmas present from my brother. I have identified all the buttons and most of the tokens and have been able to read some of the lettering on the token in question. Pictures are not the best and the token is in poor shape so I need some expert help in determining just what it is.
There is an eagle on the front with wings spread and something in its talons. On the back in the center is the number 5. Across the bottom starting about the 8 O'clock position and going to about the 4 O'clock position are the words "1st VA CAVALRY" Across the top is the sutler's name but I can't make all of it out I think it Says "L Goldheim".
So, can anyone tell me about my token
