Finds down the block

[Burdie]

Well a few clad coins and three interesting finds. The Plymouth emblem was eight inches down and in great shape to my surprise. The tokens are my favorite finds. Any thoughts of how old the Plymouth emblem would be? Thanks for looking.


We had a savings bank in the 60's here. The other was 1885 but I don't think this is that old.

Here is a little plymouth history, btw nice stuff. Bongo

The original logo was the good ship Mayflower, and was brought back in the 1990s. This emblem was joined by a coat of arms that is believed to be the seal of a county in Massachusetts where the Pilgrims first landed. The coat of arms, with the Mayflower either part of it or above it, appeared in one form or another from 1949 to 1958.

Starting in the 1940s (the small one on the right is from 1946 and appeared in several places inside the Plymouth cars), concurrent with the sailing ship, Plymouth used a sloping, tall triangle "rocket ship" logo with two colors, featuring it on steering wheels, hubcaps, etc.; it made a comeback in 1959. The first one shared space with the last appearance of the Mayflower until it was brought back in the 1990s; the 1959 Mayflower is noteworthy in that this is the only year where the ship was clearly shown facing forward. A stylized gold forward-facing Mayflower was also used on the trunklid and most grilles in 1957, but was so abstract that many people had no idea what it was supposed to be.
