Couple of decent tokens this past weekend

Been looking for scraps in a lot where several old homes were demo'd and has been picked over for 2 months before we got the chance to try our luck.
I've pulled six mostly modern tokens in the past 2 weeks but hardly any coins. These two made my day however.
The scalloped is from a town about 50 miles south of me and was for a Barber Shop from 1891.

Nice tokens I don't find many here in Ct for some reason?

The only tokens we normally find around here are small ones from a now defunct local arcade and those pesky 30s WA State tax tokens. Love that barber shop token!!!!!

Just for fun, I searched Google for Connecticut Token Book and found there is a new (2019) one out written by Manuel Ayala. It's a bit pricey like most state specific token guides. It has 700+ pages and 6000+ listings for token related items. I use my Utah (and other states) token guides a lot for researching towns to hunt in. Given the colonial history of your state, I bet there are some old and rare ones out there.
