Barber Quarters / Very Old J.M. Brunswick Billiard Token / Railroad Uniform Button

[floodplaindetector]

Finds are from some hunts since my last post. All finds were made in city parks and old schools with my 5th generation NEL Tornado coil as I wanted to put that coil through a
hard test to see what it could do ; and now my arm needs a rest .
The Brunswick and Balke Co Billiard Token is an older one (Circa 1874-1884) as the company merged with the Collender company in 1884.
It was a 9-10 inch signal and read like a wheat penny. It has "good for 10 cents" verbiage along with a merchant on the other side.
Each quarter was found at a different park. Both Barber quarters were amongst a lot of junk and weren't real loud signals.
I also found what appears to be a carved lead bullet as it sets flat on a table. I am open to any ideas on that one.

Awesome finds FPD! That billiard token has to be one of the best tokens I have seen in a very long time. Incredible condition.

Congrats on finding two Barber quarters as well. I know that felt good seeing that big old silver in the bottom of your hole. HH

Incredible and outstanding assortment of finds! Now pardon me if you've already noted what this item is as I may have missed it. But what is the apparently silver coin reverse above the 1948 Washington?

Hey Chipper97,
that is just a 2001 Sacagawea dollar I found real shallow. Forgot to mention that one. I thought it was cool looking and a dollar coin so I included it in the post.

I just added the Boy Scout Cuff Button I found also. I didn't include it initially.
It has a pat 1911 toward the bottom.
